I just spent about 3-4 hours on a neat website where you can go back 50 years and see ariel photos of many areas including rail lines. I traced the Erie's Greenwood Lake Branch from Mountain View to the Wanaque Reservior and was able to see the Ringwood Brach to the Iron Mines. I was also able to check out the Lackawanna's Boonton Line. The Photos show Mt. View Tower at the diamond of the previously mentioned as late as 1957. ONly drawbacks of this site is you can't copy or print the pics, but it is well woth checking out. In case you haven't been there, the URL is; http://www.historicaerials.com/ Fred Stratton Boonton & Greenwood Lake RR in HO Scale Salisbury, NC 28147 _________________________________________________________________ Reveal your inner athlete and share it with friends on Windows Live. http://revealyourinnerathlete.windowslive.com?locale=en-us&ocid=TXT_TAGLM_WLYIA_whichathlete_us The Erie Lackawanna Mailing List http://EL-List.railfan.net/ To Unsubscribe: http://Lists.Railfan.net/erielackunsub.html ------------------------------
