Thanks to Pat McKnight's generosity I recently had the opportunity to
review and photograph many of the Tri-State's (NRHS Chapter) archives of
DL&W 1918 value maps now at Steamtown. I've only begun to review them
when I came across a wye off the mainline at Lehigh (just west of
Gouldsboro). A quick search on the Penn Pilot site and found the 1939
view of that location, and also a modern view pulled from acme mapper.


I imagine it was for the steam helper services up from Scranton.

Anyway it's not like finding a lost tomb in Egypt, but fun to see
historical artifacts still around 90 years later. Enjoy the photos.
