NATIONAL BEER DAY April 7th 2020

Today is National Beer Day observed annually on April 7th. Celebrate with a pint of pale ale, lager, stout, wheat beer or pale ale.
Beer is one of the world’s oldest prepared beverages, possibly dating back to 9500 BC when cereal was first farmed. It is recorded in the written history of ancient Egypt. Beer is the world’s most widely consumed alcoholic beverage. Following water and tea, it is the third most popular drink overall!
April 7th is significant to beer drinkers, as on this date in 1933, President Franklin Roosevelt took the first step toward ending Prohibition by signing a law allowing people to brew and sell beer! Beer drinkers celebrated and were happy to be able to purchase beer again for the first time in thirteen years. That's a long time to go without a beer!!
When the current "Prohibition" ends, come relax and drink a beer on the spacious decks at The Bridgeview Bed & Breakfast while you watch trains roll by on The World Famous Rockville Bridge! Just give us a call at 717-957-2438 to enjoy some beer & cheer at The Bridgeview!!!

Railfanning Around Harrisburg PA!

What makes the area in and around Harrisburg Pennsylvania such a great place to railfan?
That's easy! Variety and Activity!!!
A diverse mix of train types: intermodal; manifest; unit trains of coal, grain, oil, ethanol; diesel and electric passenger; foreign power, including export locos; and of course Heritage Units!!
Numerous choices of lines to railfan; Norfolk Southern has six different mainlines, two industrial branches, three major yards and the Enola Diesel shop; there is Amtrak's Electrified Keystone line; and several independent short lines. Take your pick!!
Harrisburg is already a busy hub for Norfolk Southern, and train sizes have grown tremendously resulting in distributed power being used on intermodal, manifest and unit trains. NS is currently rebuilding many locomotives and retiring older units, so get out there and get them while you can!
