Ken -
Your photo tour is excellent. AIR, you and I discussed the route on-line just prior to you undertaking this effort.
Rgretably no pics but would like to add a brief personal story....
I think it was maybe 15-16 years ago Lincoln Park had a Saturday town festival centered around the train depot. Tri-State RHS participated/brought our then newly restored LACKAWANNA Baggage/RPO car #2038 via the Morristown & Erie which also brought the then newly restored/recreated URHS Lehigh Valley F7's, a couple coaches and maybe something else.
After this festival about 5ish the M&E re-assembled the train and off we went with the beautiful F units leading Eastbound down thru Montclair and the old Boonton Line to the Orange Branch spur. You should have seen the looks we got enroute at each grade crossing with this vintage consist !! Now this is where the story gets really cool....
We stopped/parked on the main and the 2 F's plus 1 coach cut off and pulled East of the OB switch. The 2 F's then reversed/pushed the coach ( slowly ) onto the OB and trundled down to just before reaching Bloomfield Ave. where the coach was unhitched and secured for display the next day for some sorta similar local festival. Back came the 2 F's light to the Boonton Line, reversed and re-hitched to the remaining consist on the main. We then continued Eastbound down to West End, took the wye over to the Morristown Line and went West - AT TRACK SPEED - express back to Morristown. We did get 1 brief red signal just East of Millburn to permit an MU revenue set to overtake us. Once we got the clear, those great F7's really cleared their throats hauling up-grade to Summit and beyond !
Now, I wonder if this was the first and only time perhaps that F7 diesels ever set foot on the Orange Branch....let alone ones painted in LV colors !! Again, lotsa folks turning their heads on the OB and later at nearly every Morristown Line station as we raced by doin 50-60 mph !
THAT was a fun day !
