Anchor Clues:

Be sure to check out a piece of history in not only the train station but also the train carts in this area.
Enter the Rail Trail by the station and turn right, heading south past the station and toward East Franklin Street.
Continue on the trail and carefully cross Franklin and Main Street.
After crossing Main Street, the trail will cross the tracks. Continue to follow it past the trains on your right. The trail will then cross the tracks again near the parking area on your left.
Continue following the trail and carefully cross High Street and McCullough Avenue, with Front Street on your right.
Continue on the trail for a while as it enters a more wooded area of the trail. Eventually you will see the Singer Road Bridge that you will go underneath.
Continue south and carefully cross Orwig Road. Continue on the trail for about 150 yards. The post will be on the right by the bulletin board.
You just walked to the Maryland Line! Take some time checking out the bulletin boards and the opportunity to stand in two states at the same time.
To return to the parking area, return the way you came.

Puffer fish do not have scales, but instead have spines (which you might not see until they puff up).
Their teeth never stop growing, so they eat hard foods with shells to trim their teeth.
A puffer fish inflates when they feel threatened, taking in large amounts of water, quickly expanding its entire body. They can do this as soon as they are born.
