Following the D-L trackage eastward out of Steamtown I must say I'm impressed. I recall when the trackage from Scranton to Del W Gap was rusted solid and trees fallen over it back in the '80s. Track looks to be in good shape, and there are quite a few online customers, some with small yards.
Can anyone answer these questions...
1. What was the ROW that paralleles the D-L track, including bridges, out of Scranton? At the Elmhurst Resevoir this line turned northward while the D-L heads east.
2. What is the yard just north of the Tobyhanna army depot? It's full of cars. Looks like hoppers. It's right along Tobyhanna Rd.
3. Does the army depot itself get any rail service? It appears as though all the tracks that ran thru the depot are torn up/paved over. You can see there are stub tracks that one made up a network of trackage thru the complex but the tracks are severed.
4. What is current track speed?
