The Norfolk Southern DL&W Heritage loco #1074 will be on site along with cosmetically restored GG1 4877.
These volunteers are truly working hard and getting the job done.
Look forward to seeing some of the OGR "train guys"

DL&W Keyser Valley caboose #896 will also be there.
Thanks for uploading pic of DL&W Heritage engine 1074
Yes, a large crowd showed up and it was well organized and attended.. Nice to see the young families getting involved. Opening the ex DL&W freight station
for the clubs--was also a nice surprise.
The DL&W Tri State caboose #896 was the perfect fit with NS engine.
Appreciated how the members invited all in and spoke with everyone.
Interesting to know how the caboose got there. From the Whippany Museum
the M&E RR exchanged it at Dover, NJ..
Then the Heritage engine took 896 over the Boonton line. Fans
who knew-- got some great shots last Thursday.
The 896 should return early this week to Dover.-perhaps coupled with the 1074 -
.
