Beautiful Blue ridge Mountains.


If you are going to New York a treat
is in store for you il you take the Lack
awanna railroad. This line offers the
most beautiful scenery of any of the
great trunk lines of the east trarersing
the beautiful agricultural regions of
west New York until it reaches the
Susquehanna river, beside which il runs
for miles. overlooking the beautiful yal-
legs nestled in among the foothills of
the Blue Ridge mountains. Next is
reached the valley of the Delaware
river. which the trains follow thru Della
ware Water Gap, conceded to be one of
the most picturesque spots in America,
the river and the railroad fighting for
the rightof way thru a great gap in the
mountains cut by the ceaseless washing
of the waters Of the river. For miles
the track curves in and about the Blue
Ridge mountains. each successive turn
presenting a picture seemingly more
beautiful than the last. AT Mount
Pocono an altitude Of 1900 feet is
reached. and from here on the train
descends thru the mountains and foot
hills almost to the edge of the Hudson
river. the last hundred miles having
been for the most part beside the pic
turesque old Morris and Essex canal.
