The Arch in Auburn Pennsylvania

The entrance to Auburn, PA. Commonly referred to as The Arch.
Here are some photos of the Arch in Auburn,PA. The Arch is also known as the entrance to Auburn. The Reading and Northern Railroad runs on the tracks that go over the Arch.

Years ago, people would hang out and socialize on the steps to the arch. It was a favorite place among teenagers of the time. This was before the internet and today's world of Facebook.

The arch also has a small dirt road right before the steps the leads back to the Auburn Canal. This was a very popular spot for fishing and also bush parties.

On the area to the right of the Arch is the Schuylkill River which has a small path/trail that leads to the Schuylkill River and is still quite popular with local fishermen.
