Talk:Delaware and Hudson Railway

message: What the hell is this nonsense about the Lackawaxen river being deepened for navigation from the Roebling Aquaduct to Honesdale??  There was a separate canal bed the entire way.  Unless somebody knows better than I (and I've traced the canal prism the entire way) I'm going to fix it.  RussNelson 19:44, 3 February 2006 (UTC)

message: According to this link the Delaware and Hudson also used the New York Central Railroad's Water Level Route to go as far south as Grand Central Terminal. I don't see too much about this in the article, and I almost considered adding a D&H category to GCT until somebody talked me out of it. ---------User:DanTD (talk)  22:53, 8 November 2013 (UTC)

thread_title:  Copyright problem removed 

message: I had asked this question about the Chicago North Shore and Milwaukee Railroad earlier this year, and I got an overwhelming and understandable negative answer. However there's already a station list for the Boston and Albany Railroad article, at least for the main line. So shouldn't there be one here too? -------User:DanTD (talk)  23:52, 4 November 2015 (UTC)

message: The following back-and-forth over OR in the article's Legacy section, inappropriately conducted on the main page, and grossly inappropriately waged in response, was located here for hashing out:

thread_title:  OR back-and-forth 

message: Delaware and Hudson Railway#Delaware and Hudson Railway (1968-1988) is a long section without a single citation, so I can't readily figure out how to clean this point up.
The section includes these two statements:
* "After New York and Pennsylvania were hit by Hurricane Agnes in 1972, which destroyed almost all of the EL mainline west of Binghamton, NY and following the bankruptcy of numerous northeastern U.S. railroads in the 1970s, including D&H and E-L, N&W lost control of Dereco stock."
* "Guilford's plans for expanded service did not come to fruition, and after two intense labor strikes, Guilford declared the D&H bankrupt in 1988, abandoning its operation."
The first clearly implies that the D&H went bankrupt sometime in the 1970s.  There certainly were numerous bankruptcies in that period, from Penn Central on down, but my recollection is that the D&H was not one of them.  I thought the D&H was still operating, with no bankruptcy, as of 1985, when my involvement in railroad bankruptcies ended.  My recollection is consistent with the second statement, which puts the D&H bankruptcy in 1988.
Can anyone straighten this out? JamesMLane t c 07:19, 17 July 2017 (UTC)
thread_title:  Timeline is confused 

message: SEE Notes (14) and (15). Train numbers are correct. Albany-Binghamton was January 24, 1963. Last Binghamton-Albany was January 25, 1963, after a consist overnight at Binghamton. Please UPDATE “by 1963”, which is far too nonspecific.
