Jeff, can't say how much I appreciate the amazing quantity and quality of Lackawanna material on your blog. I've long thought their stations and right of way were the best in the US from a design and quality standpoint.
ReplyDeleteAs you may realize, the 100th anniversary of the South Orange elevation and station project was last March. The Township is planning to commemorate this in October, and would love to link to your blog and use some of the photos on it. Please let me know that's alright.
I now see the photos are from Steam town. We'd still like to link to this blog.
ReplyDeleteI apologize for not replying sooner, but I just saw your comment for the first time today. Feel free to do any links, although it's probably way past time on what you wanted to do.
Deleteare their photographs of Mountain Station and South Orange before the elevation project? Is the elevated project by chance in book form?
