- from our Affiliates
The Delaware, Lackawanna & Western Railroad Company (DL&W or Lackawanna Railroad) was a U.S. Class one railroad that connected Buffalo, New York, and Hoboken, New Jersey, a distance of about 400 miles. Incorporated in 1853, the DL&W was profitable during the first two decades of the twentieth century, but its margins were gradually hurt by declining traffic in coal, competition from trucks, and high New Jersey taxes. The Lackawanna Railroad Centennial was centennial was celebrated in 1951. In 1960, the DL&W merged with rival Erie Railroad to form the Erie Lackawanna Railroad. The E-L was legally conveyed into Conrail on April 1, 1976. © Stan Feldman 7/1999 - 2020
