Description
The "X4012 Big Boy" passes beneath the Delaware River Viaduct on Old Road near Slateford, PA.
The Lackawanna Old Road was part of the original mainline of the Delaware, Lackawanna and Western Railroad (DL&W).
Opened in 1856, it was for a half-century simply a part of the line connecting New Jersey and Pennsylvania.
In 1911, the DL&W cut 11 miles (18 km) off the route by opening the Lackawanna Cut-Off, which split off from existing track at the new Port Morris Junction and Slateford Junction.
The 39.6-mile (63.7 km) stretch of existing track between these junctions was relegated to secondary status and became known as the "Old Road".
Experience Amazing!
