To Paul & List;WHERE in Boonton (at the other end of town), was Norda?
A friend and I rode the Lake Cities, HOBOKEN TO SCRANTON, and return, one night, shortly before its' demise; on the Westward trip, there was only one young man debarking at Cresco, PA; and I was riding the vestibule, seem to recall that the moon was full,
and the Conductor asked the young man, if he could safely get off at a crawl speed, as he feared that they might not be able to re-start the train; there were extra coaches, with Boy Scouts, that night.
I have a list of the whole consist that night, but not here. The Conductor had a radio, and the "stop" was safely and effectively made, at a crawl, no helper.
