Re:Re: (erielack) No.21



Chuck -- #21 was to get people into the Poconos, not through them.  It made stops that #3 would have had to otherwise.  

It would be interesting to know if the timetable showed a restriction on #21 as "stops to discharge passengers only."  This would make any such times just a guess and would put no requirement on #21 to wait at a stop for the schedule to catch up.

Dear Ed,

Did the train just go to Scranton, or Buffalo?  I'm wondering if it made any stops that the Phoebe Snow didn't.  (I realize it went up the Boonon Line.) I guess what I'm getting at is why would the Lackawanna run the train if the folks on the line could wait for the "real thing"?  Or did it serve to get some folks over the Poconos?

Chuck
