Greetings, all.......
I have a few questions about two current day locations on NJT's old Lackawanna (Morris and Essex) line.
First, what is thw wye at Denville used for? is it just a place for NJT to store MOW equipment, or does NS use it to wye local freight jobs? It looks like the entire wye is usable, but that doesn't make it so!
Also, is the old tower used by NJT as a MOW crew building?
Moving east, where is the old Harrison yard located? I am curious to know after looking at pictures in my Lackawanna Tabor book. Is it all gone, under the ROW of today's route 280? I can't say I've ever seen remnants of it on my travels to Hoboken!
Thanks in advance,
