The L&WV Chapter of the NRHS is sponsoring an excursion on the Delaware, Lackawaxen & Stourbridge (the historic former Erie Railroad Honesdale Branch) from Honesdale to Lackawaxen, Pennsylvania on June 10th. Power for the 50-mile round trip through the beautiful scenery through the Lackawaxen River Gorge will be the Stourbridge Line’s rare EMD BL-2 locomotive #54. There is an online auction for a cab ride in the BL-2. One cab ride will be eastbound, with a coach seat on the return. The other auction is for a coach seat eastbound and the cab ride westbound. The trip benefits Project3713, the restoration of Boston & Maine #3713 at the Steamtown National Historic Site.

A Bangor & Aroostook Diesel is being marshalled into help rebuild a Boston & Maine steamer. I love the Maine connection! |

Here is the 54 in its former life at Northern Maine Junction in the '60s (sorry for the slide deterioration)

The cab ride and Presidential Car are full, but there's still time to get tickets for this weekend's Erie Limited "Limited" on the Delaware, Lackawaxen & Stourbridge. Coach and caboose seats plus box lunches are available online now: http://www.project3713.com/erie_limited_june_10/ Trip will feature BL-2 #54. Photo stops are planned. Come join us for a ride through the beautiful Lackawaxen River Gorge and support the restoration of B&M #3713. Rob Davis Project3713 |
