Hello, 'Spacher...?
This is Leverman Clinker at Manunka Chunk.
I ain't got no idea why, but levers 3 and 6 won't move no more.
Ya got a Maintainer anywhere close...?





( "Clinker" is Jimmy Mardiguian, retired Trainmaster at Hoboken Terminal, who began his career as a leverman on the Lackawanna. He is nicknamed Clinker because he plays with operating minature live steam engines. Manunka Chunk is the point where the PRR's Belvidere-Delaware Division joined the Lackawanna's Old Main Line through Washington, NJ. The view looks eastward, and a flood on the Delaware River has washed out the river bank. The DL&W tracks through the tunnels lead to Washington, Dover and Jersey City. Trackage diverging to the right, along the river bank, is the PRR's Bel-Del Division headed toward Trenton, NJ. Yes, the tower was replaced the following year.)




Better quality JPG file attached, should you wish to save... ☺
