From the Railroad Gazette August 8, 1890 page 563:

Delaware, Lackawanna & Western. - The company is surveying a route from
West Pittston, Pa, up the Susquehanna Valley to Waverly NY, connecting
with a new branch. This route would be 10 miles shorted than by the
Lehigh Valley, and would open up a more direct outlet for coal shipments
to the West from the Pittston district than is now possible by way of
Scranton.

Sounds like a good idea, any comments on why it wasn't done?

Thanks
Frank
