Subject: Question About DL&W Train No.1 in 1940
"DL_W_1405_with_train_1_Mt_Pococo-Collection_of_Center_for_RR_Photography_Art-Photo_by_Donald.jpg" - image/jpeg, 1634x963 (256c)

Hi,



Does anyone know about the typical consist for train No.1 listed in the
DL&W September 1939 public TT? It left Hoboken at 800am, traveled via the
Boonton Line, arrived in Dover 917am and went west via the Old Road with
stops at all the Old Road stations, arrived in Scranton at 1250pm ,
Binghamton at 250pm and Utica at 615pm where it terminated. There is no
information in the TT about the equipment. Train No.2 is shown as the
"Pocono Express" as a reference. A photo taken by Don Furler of train #1 at
Mt. Pocono in February 1940 shows five milk cars, a combine and what appear
to be three coaches. By 1942, train No.1 no longer appears in the public
TT.



Any insight into this train would be appreciated. Thanks.
