[QUOTE="mforder, post: 4185652, member: 20023"][U][B]Item #45:[/B][/U] 1871 - "The Trial Trip of the Locomotive" - Wallkill From Newton to Franklin, Hamburg and Branchville. In 1871 the Sussex Railroad expanded to this area and it appears that this was an invite to ride on the locomotive that would travel these tacks for the first time. It's kind of neat to know that this is a paper from that time and it must have been exciting news to those who had the privilege to experience this event. Later in life the Sussex Railroad became a part of the Delaware, Lackawanna & Western Railroad. [ATTACH=full]334399[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]
