Re: Per Diem and the NYO&W
Malcolm H. Houck
Who was feeding NYO&W from the west at Scranton? Lackawanna?
Lehigh Valley, via Austin Junction at the end of the Capouse Branch. The run was then from Scranton to Maybrook, with traffic thence over the CNE Bridge to New England via the New Haven (50.5% common stockholder [plus other holdings in preferred] in the NYO&W and after the Vanderbilt-Mellen-Morgan "Corsair Agreements"). In Tony Koester's softcover Kalmbach book on planning for realistic operation he reproduces an image of a routing schedule that includes one of the NYO&W symbol freights; -- running NKP-LV-NYO&W-NH from the Midwest to New England; -- an "Alphabet Route."
