Thomas Edison built laboratories and factories in West Orange. They were served by the Erie Orange Branch. Westinghouse factories and offices were located on the Lackawanna at Newark Broad Street and at Ampere on the Montclair Branch. It's strange that the Lackawanna used 3000 volt DC power and Edison designs to electrify, rather than the on-line Westinghouse! ===== Gary R.
