Rebuilt Geeps |
Description: |
One of the Morristown & Erie's recent acquisitions awaits work alongside one of NJ Transit's commuter diesels. ME 23 started off life on the ATSF before heading to the northern Maine woods to work the Bangor & Aroostook Railroad. NJT 4212 was built as an EMD demonstrator unit before going to work for Penn Central and later Conrail. Both are rebuilds, 23 by the Santa Fe from a GP-7 and 4212 from a GP40 by Conrail for NJ Transit. |

RDG 90882 |
Description: |
Originally constructed as a 1000 series day coach for the Philadelphia & Reading Railway, this car was converted in 1929 to a rider car on the Erie Avenue relief train out of Philadelphia. Retired in the 1960s, it was sold to Rail Tours Inc. but never made it to the operation, floating around various areas in the suburban areas outside Philadelphia before being sold and moved to its current location. Today it serves as part of an antique shop with the old LV Dushore station along the abandoned State Line & Sullivan Branch. Original number believed to be P&R 1019. |

NP 24617 |
Description: |
How does a boxcar from the Northern Pacific Railway end up in the middle of rural Pennsylvania? Back in 1972, this car had been brought to the New Albany station, north of this location on the Lehigh Valley State Line & Sullivan Branch, for a customer in town. While it was still parked in New Albany, a flood from Hurricane Agnes washed out the tracks. The Lehigh Valley Railroad chose not to repair the line as the branch wasn't all that profitable and the car became stranded. It stood in place next to the station until 2009 when it was acquired by a private party and moved south by truck to serve as a storage unit at this lumber company. |

Description: |
Not seeing much action these days due to the arrival of larger power for the railroad, this switcher was built by GMD in 1956 as Canadian National 1587 and has been nicknamed "Bullwinkle" by the Owego & Harford. Its former counterpart "Rocky", an RS-18u from the Canadian Pacific, was sold to the LA&L family of lines in western New York where it currently operates as B&H 416. |

Built as Boston & Maine Railroad 1126 in 1953, this locomotive was acquired by the Owego & Harford in the 1990s and used to power Tioga Scenic Railroad excursions north out of Owego. The excursions, not to be confused with previous operator Tioga Central Railroad, ended in 2005 with the unit sitting dormant since. Note the B&M style numberboards still extant on the front of the unit. |

LV Station |
Description: |
Built in 1902 for the Lehigh Valley Railroad, this station was once the sight of the Tioga Transportation Museum, opened in 1975 as a museum with steam operations using an small 0-4-0T on a small siding adjacent to the depot commencing in 1979. It was in this location, and this small organization, that today's Tioga Central Railroad got its start. Today the Tioga Central Railroad is based in Wellsboro, PA under the operation of G&W owned Wellsboro & Corning Railroad. The small 0-4-0T is under the care of Rochester & Genesee Valley Railroad Museum of Rush, NY, which is currently restoring her back to operation. While the depot may not see passenger trains any longer, the memories are still there along with the freight trains of the Owego & Harford Railway. |
