Yesterday, Today, and Tomorrow on the Lehigh & Hudson River Railway
Presented by Alan Held
The November meeting will feature a presentation by Warwick, NY native and current Trainmaster, Alan Held, on the long and storied history of the L&HR. Mr. Held will discuss early history, operations, and motive power, as well as current operations on the former bridge line. Located in picturesque Warren, Sussex, and Orange Counties, the Lehigh & Hudson River was a Class I carrier with major haulage, yet the feel of a home-town railroad. This presentation will feature rare images from the L&HR archives as well as never before seen maps. Whether you are new to the L&HR or you have some familiarity, there is something for everyone in this in-depth look at a lesser-known fallen flag.
