Re: (erielack) Lackawanna Stub in Elmira to see varnish
As long as we don't see a string a perfectly good old cars going to the scrap yard. So they can't say, no we can't put Phoebe back on. We have no cars. You see we have new cars. But we now have less than before. (that's what happened in the 1980's) Lackawanna-to the Pacific Lance.

I was told by an Amtrak official that the cars were to be shipped to Albany overthe D&H, then on to NYC, but this could change.I'm still trying to picture in my head the sight of a string of NEW Amtrakviewliner "type" cars parading down the "Route of Phoebe Snow" in Elmira in2012.... what a wonderful sight to see...

What routing will these new cars follow on their way to Philadelphia or Hialeah?
Makes one conjur, doesn't it?
