Re: (erielack) Bridge Numbering of the DL&W in Pennsylvania



Bob,

Interesting point.  But since we have evidence that Bridge 59 is west of
Bridge 60 and Bridge 61 is east, the lingering question remains as to where
was Bridge 1 located?  And how far east did the numbering go?  And via
which route did the numbering scheme follow (to Hampton, to Hoboken)?

Why does everyine think the the western end of th Scranton Dicision was
at Binghamton.  My ETT 99 dated 29 Apr 1951 shows the western end of the
division was at Johnson City.   If you look at the distances, Bridge 60
was just about 60 miles from Johnson City.

Binghamton was where the crews changed but was not the end of the division.
