Erie-Lackawanna Line to Indianapolis, Indiana
The Erie Lackawanna map of 1967. The line from Hamilton, Ohio to Indianapolis, Indiana stands out to me. On the USGS maps, this was the Baltimore and Ohio railroad. Did the Erie Lackawanna buy this line or was granted trackage rights? The web link of this photo: http://www.scrantonstation.com/scranton ... -Large.gif

It was either trackage rights or haulage rights over the b&o. I am unaware if they were ever used south of Dayton.

It was haulage on B&O trains.
