First, I'd like to thank Paul for enhancing those fotos of the Passaic bridge
for us.
Now, here's a foto of the mosaics that are still to be seen in the hotel
that was the DL&W station in Scranton. The quality is not the best - in fact,
rather dark, but it gives an idea of what's there. This particular mosaic is
over the doors leadins outside to the tracks, I.E. looking West. Just as
you'd be looking West when you came into Hoboken on one of the Company
ferryboats & you'd see the ferryslips & the station. As I said before, I was
puzzled by the clock tower in the mosaic, but I later learned that it had
been torn down prior to WW2. A neat little allegory here.
Regards,
Walter E. Smith
