A nice area is Warbasse Junction where the New York Susquehanna & Western Railroad (NYS&W) crossed with the Delaware Lackawanna & Western RR.

Also in this area is the Warbasse farm and the Hyper Humus company.

Nice set of photos on railfan.net. And I like the retrophotos of the junction. Nice to see that people are keeping the railbed open.

It's really a nice walking trail. The picture from the 50s can be found in one of the NYS&W books. I can't remember which one though.
