(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
