Re: (erielack) Former DL&W line news...
Is the track directly adjacent to the National Pipe site the former
DL&W main? I once spent quite a bit of time working at National Pipe
as a consultant (it is a Superfund site) back in the early 90's. I
recall noticing rail activity and bulk hoppers on a siding unloading
PVC pellets. At the time I had no idea of the rail heritage nearby.
