Re: (erielack) D&H Canal and Gravity Railroad, Honesdale, Pa



Right title and year, but it was a Quadrant Press publication.  The cover
painting shows an Erie Berkshire (number indistinct, could be 3331?) but
no hint of where it is on double track.

The inside front cover and facing page show a doubleheaded eastbound train
with a helper, all stretched across Starucca and a distance either side,
caption says engines are 2-10-2 4001 and 2-8-4 3364 with 2-10-2 4223
pushing.
