Sussex Branch Site Updates

20 July 2007:

In an attempt to reduce the spam to my inbox, I've changed the email addresses on my website. to contact me, email DaveRutan at DLW-SussexBranch.com.


26 April 2007:

I've decided to move the Trail Guide to a wiki so that trail users wiould be able to update the trail conditions, etc. It'll be a slow process moving it over. The Trail wiki is here: http://sbtrail.wiki-site.com


8 February 2007: Let's Play Identify the Bridge!

I recently was given some scans of bridges definitely on the Sussex Branch of the Lackawanna. These photos were included in the Interstate Commerce Commission reports which were made up around WWI to assess the value of the railroads. A few of these are easy and many of them are hard (or VERY hard) to identify without the reports. I know where these bridges are/were. Do you? Play Here:


8 February 2006: I've reinstated my 'Reviews' page for print and video media which includes Sussex Branch material.


9 June 2005: I've added a map from 1930 which shows the station site at Cranberry Lake..


25 January 2005: I've added drawings of the Netcong freight station and the Augusta Passenger station to the modeling section of my website.


5 January 2005: I've added a few new images on the Waterloo Station page.


25 September 2004: Last Train to Branchville: This is a handout from the Railroadians of America on the occasion of the 'Last Train to Branchville' trip on July 9, 1966. Need I mention that this was actually the NEXT TO LAST day of service to Branchville?


4 September 2004: I've placed a NEW Franklin Station image on the site. This is the first image I've seen of the Franklin station in its later years.

You will notice a refinement of the format creeping into the site. I apologize that it took so long, but I swear, the site looked just fine in Netscape on my Mac. It wasn't until I looked at it from work, that I noticed it needed improvement. Thanks also to Ron Rice for bringing the problem to my attention in the Map Progressions section.
