David Abeles General Oldschool, totally awesome. That's NS's Lehigh Line today, still sees 25-30 freights daily, but nothing that cool! Tower is gone now, and the REA lettering is much more washed out... 11/20/2006 3:50:25 PM
Mike Woodruff General These are both ex-LV SW8s and both survive today. CR 8673 was LV 259, is now ITI 2 (Waste Management) at Jessup, MD. CR 8686 was LV 272, is now GLSX (Cargill Salt) 8686 at Lansing, NY. 11/23/2006 2:29:43 PM
Anthony N. Chando General The people around the Easton Pa., area.., call this "Valley" station. As it was the old LVRR's Passenger station. 4/24/2008 8:12:32 AM
