Is there a list of surviving DL&W equipment anywhere?

I know of..

The two steamers 952 & 565

Passenger coaches everywhere.

The three hoppers @ Steamtown.

The Cabooses in Scranton (one Steamtown, one D-L)..

Where else are the rest of the survivors?

Also at Steamtown:

Troop Sleeper, Boxcar, D-L owned EMC switcher.

Elsewhere:
A DeWitt RS-3, a GP7- perhaps chopped?
Some newer EMD switchers?
A coal company lokie- anthracite Museum near Scranton.

Check George Elwood's EL site for other engines. Two of ther 44 tonners survived in NH or VT until a fire claimed them in the past ten years.

Another coach out west.

Orange Empire Railway Museum of Perris, California (Riverside County) has a former DL&W commutte coach. It came by way of a defuct tourist operation in southern Arizona and is part of the Museum's utility (non-collection) fleet of cars. When the trucks were cleaned up the number 2250 was seen on one of the bolsters.

The "Essex", the Morris & Essex RR's 2nd loco, somewhere North of Toledo on the steamer "Clarion" sunk in Lk. Erie in 1850 after being sold to the Western Ohio RR. Cold fresh water is a good preservative.

Also at Steamtown, a former DL&W wooden milk car. This car spent many years at the Black River & Western RR and had been converted into a office while there.

all of R&N former BM&R coaches are former DLW MU`s, plus the two that still sit down from the Temple station that were never restored.
