Horseshoe Curve Webcam?

I was using the Horseshoe Curve live webcam a couple of weeks ago.  Now it is not available.  Did Virtual Railfan move it behind its $4.99/month paywall?

Still broke. I think either a ghost is haunting it, birds pooped on the camera, or somebody messed around with The Necronomicon, summoned the Great Old Ones and now they're attacking Altoona, PA. Maybe all three at the same time.

Maybe read their posts on their page’s Community tab before jumping to random conclusions?

It's back down again for a while. It's been down since September 7th with no word on when it will be back up. Supposedly they need to replace the camera. I think the park is also trying to replace the funicular there too.
