What to see along the DL&W in Lancaster

A month ago while riding my bike along transit road in Lancaster I rode up the entrance into a warehouse district where the steam locomotive has been stored since I became interested is RRs. Randomly I stop and check on it. Looks great as compared to my first discovery 20 years ago or so. I also noticed that the multiple trackage that lined this plant have been ripped up and tossed in a pile. That was sad. Here are some pics:




Today I took a short bike ride on the bike path and headed towards the engine house of the Depew Lancaster and Western. I haven't been there since last year and was surprised to see locomotive #1800 parked there. Looks like it either got a bath or new paint. Looks new. The other two cars have been there awhile. Here is a pano pic:


A caboose that I've never seen here before:

Lancaster? At any rate, the steamer looks cared for.

SST - what plant would this be that the loco is parked - is it now landlocked?

Stumbled upon this historical picture inside the coupler plant.

I believe this plant was torn down long ago. I do remember seeing it but never in action. Then POOF, it was gone.

Never cease to be amazed when looking at overheads the remnants of ROW’ s and how all these lines - this time in this area were all interconnected in some way by switching from one to the other .
Always interesting to follow the ‘brush lines’ of long gone tracks

Speaking of couplers, my friend just sent me this interesting video.
