Allegheny Portage Railroad National Historical Site

This is Sam’s favorite NPS Unit so far! He loved the bully system and engendering.

The day started early for me in Altoona, PA. I went out to check the car, and we had 8 PSI in the low tire and it was on its way to being fully flat. So I ordered up a Lyft to the Altoona–Blair County Airport to pick-up my new car. I arrived at 8:40am to be first in line for their 9am opening, however, someone else beat me to it and they got the only car available … so there was no new car for me. I quickly ordered my Lyft again with hopes of getting the same driver and luck had it that I did. Brian saved the day! He drove me back to our hotel, took our car to Torres Tires to get it patched, and delivered it back as good a new. He is truly a guardian angel, and when I told him that, he said, he has a guardian angel tattoo and always loves to help people. Hunanity can be pretty awesome!
