In case anyone has noticed, I've been away from the computer for a while. I had the misfortune to have an abscess on my liver plus a bacterial blood infection...

Listers, I hope nobody noticed I've been off-line for like 3 weeks. Some of this is because I was broken and did not feel well enough to use the computer....
Your list owner has arrived home. I'm on bed rest for a few weeks because of a blood clot in my leg, but I'm slowly recuperating. When I get back on my feet,...
Nice to have you back, Dave. Something to make you feel better is that Athearn / Roundhouse has released their MDT style milk car, correct for Bordens,...
Alright, Dave!! Welcome home and all the best for a speedy recovery! Best Regards, Bob Mitchell ... __________________________________________________ Do You...

Has anyone been using the trail this winter? Why not post a report on the conditions you encountered? Any bears about? Any favorite nearby snack locations? ...
In early November I took a bike trip out and back along the whole branch from my apartment in Stanhope. I had a really nice time, It was sunny and in the 50's...
Dean, There was a bridge over the road just west (as you say) of the incline plane. Technically, it's south in SRR terms. Dave ... -- The First Railroad in...
Dean, How far north did you go? Did you get as far as Branchville? Dave ... -- The First Railroad in Sussex County New Jersey http://DLW-SussexBranch.com ...
Yes, up to Branchville, it was a little overgrown up there, the path was thin and several logs blocked the way, some sticker branches sticking out too, but...
Yes I have done the whole trail on my bike in the past month. The conditions between waterloo and cranberry are good. The stream and waterfall by Jefferson...
Thank you. It almost makes me feel like I'm out there crunching the cinders. Some of you know that the road department has been busy these past months ...
Come to think of it, they should use some of that rock and dirt as fill along the trail turned small creek just north of there. Its a shame you have to bypass...
Listers, I continue to improve daily, however I await Doctor's orders before I can start walking around. In the mean time, enjoy this review. Dave -- ...
... Of course, as you well know, that's the "new" Old Main! The "original" Main was the side most recently used only by Sussex Branch trains. I can't blame ...
Kent, It's a matter of convention. The Sussex Branch was on only one side, and one leg of the Old main was on the other side. Since the west bound lane on...
Dave, I was reading through the webpage and looking at the Cranberry Lake section of the Bones of the Branch. The old bridge is long gone, I have been on the...
John, ... left intact. When a road gets repaved, many times the rails are just paved over. I think the iron is only removed if a major scraping down is done....
Actually, there aren't "new" and "old" mains, they were east and westbound mains. The original alignment is the one on the north side of the station, next to...
It would be intersting to see if a rail length of track could be re- installed on each side of the crossing, leaving the pavement over the track in the...
Tom, I'd be happy if we could just have crosswalk striping where the trail crosses the major roads. 'Zebra' striping would actually mimic railrad ties. The ...
