Thanks for that info, Michael. 
The East Broad Top is one of my favourite railroads, and it would be great to see it revitalised. Railfans everywhere, and rail historians, too, owe the Kovalchicks a debt of gratitude for not scrapping this unique piece of railroading history. For me, the EBT, even when the trains aren't running, evokes an uncanny nostalgia for the railroads in my own home town of Hamilton, Ontario, even though they weren't narrow gauge, in the '50s and earlier.
