There is a spur at Milesburg that runs southeast to Bellefonte, then splits, with a track going northeast to Pleasant Gap and another going southwest to Lemont and State College (all in Centre County).

The rail line follows Bald Eagle Creek northeast in Centre and Clinton counties, and runs roughly parallel to U.S. Route 220 between Tyrone and Milesburg, and parallel to Pennsylvania Route 150 between Milesburg and Lock Haven.

In 1989, more track was purchased, extending the Nittany and Bald Eagle line to Lock Haven.

[1] Unfortunately this also hampers their ability to operate on the main line at times, as Class I traffic has the right of way.

The Bellefonte Historical Railroad has limited operations at this time and hosts special excursion runs.
