At Colgates Grove, the train has backed up the north leg of the wye and is now turned for the return trip to Orbisonia station. Bottom photo shows the grade approaching a summit between Colgates Grove and Orbisonia station. The line takes a straighter route over this summit rather than to follow loops of Aughwick Creek.

After dropping the train, the GE heads for the roundhouse. The turntable is armstronged to align the 44 tonner with an open stall in the roundhouse
