Hi, there, folks.
I am late again to the Midweek Photos game, and don't have much to show that is different for the past couple of weeks. Here are a few shots of my slice of heaven called Scranton, PA in the snow.
On December 2, we were expecting over a foot of snow on top of ice. The ice we got, but there might have been 5 inches of snow. I walked to pick up my car after repairs to her seats, and while crossing the Delaware-Lackawanna RR tracks, grabbed this view. This is the former Delaware & Hudson main line looking north at Olive Street in Scranton.
The next day, walking around town, I snapped this view of two of the D-L Alcos, which were idling away. The 1554 is an original Jersey Central RS3, which was restored around 2010. To her left is RS11 no 1804. She was originally a Central Vermont unit.
And, Santa Clauses came to town to stand outside the Radisson Lackawanna Station Hotel. This 1908 gem began life as a train station for Scranton, and Delaware Lackawanna & Western RR's general headquarters.
That starts the thread for this week. Christmas is on a Wednesday this year, so we will use this forum for posting our year in review beginning January 1, which is also a Wednesday. I hope to get some more pics of live trains before the year is done. For now, you can make this thread yours with your special photos to add to it. Thank you to all who have contributed. We need to keep showing off how cool this railroad world is.
