(erielack) Train List



 
Walt,
 
I am interested in the 20" x 60" train list that includes the Scranton  
Branch. As I mentioned before, it's hard to find things on the Scranton Branch  and 
Wyoming Division. I sure wish I had taken pictures when I lived up there but  
unfortunately, I didn't.
 
So it's $25? Does that include or exclude s&h? You mentioned payment by  
check, money order or cash. Name your preference and I'll comply.
 
Long day coming up but I'll be home tomorrow evening. 
 
By the way, here's a question you might be able to answer. In the early  70s, 
it's my understanding that anything on the Wyoming Division and Scranton  
Branch was not necessarily "scheduled" but on an "as needed basis". My buddy,  
Tony, who lives in Dunmore PA, and I are trying to figure this out. It does make 
 sense in one way and if what you have there shows scheduled service in the 
60s,  I guess by the time the 70s came around, it was on an "as needed basis". 
By that  time from what the Official Guide shows, the Wyoming had been 
severed. Can  you shed any light on this?
 
All the best,
 
Rick

1.   Along with the stuff I listed the other day, I just  found a Northern 
Branch passenger TT. Eff. April 24, 1966. It shows the 3  RTs now terminating 
at Sparkill. When I worked the NY division in the  EARLY 60s, they went to 
NYACK - where I had the pleasure of sleeping on  the waiting room benches in 
the station through the graciousness of the  agent there. I covered the early 
job & went to work hungry acct  nowhere to eat so had to wait to get to 
Hoboken &  Schaeffers'.


2. Color postcard of the Starucca viaduct dated (  SUSQUEHANNA  Sep 26, 
1910).  The face shows 2 camelbacks  doubleheading a passenger train over the 
viaduct in a winter scene.  Captioned - WINTER AT THE STONE BRIDGE: 
LANESBORO, PA.

Anyone want to make an offer on these 2  items?????

Regards,

Walt  Smith
