Looking at my old maps (1991) shows the AT turning left (hiking 
northbound) at the light at the north end of the US7 bridge and then 
walking down Warren Trpk. The 'newer' maps (1994, thank you JipC) show 
the AT turning right and looping around and coming back to Warren Trpk 
directly in front of the skewl. All I know is I never saw anything 
indicating a right (trail-east) turn at the light and I never saw 
anything that looked like an AT blaze going over the railroad trax. And, 
I stood at that intersection for several minutes trying to decide if I 
was going to walk up to that cafe or not. I didn't  :(

crossing for you...large curd!  (Do you still need a shuttle?)
