Today the USMC Toys-for-Tots Christmas Train travelled over the Chesapeake & Delaware's Dover & Rockaway (former DL&W Washington Secondary) to PU Tower (ex CNJ) at Phillipsburg, NJ. A crowd was awaiting the 3:50PM arrival after earlier stops along the route.

I worked as an ERIE-LACKAWANNA RWY brakeman and Conductor many times in the late 1960's-early 1970's
