As in 1958, that is. Lackawanna's Phoebe Snow stops at the station, today's hotel. Last time I was there, we had breakfast under the trainshed where the train is standing.

And this postcard from 1959. I think you could still put together a credible recreation of this train. A year later Lackawanna would join with competitor Erie to form the E-L.
