While out spending a day with ‪@JPVideos81‬ we took the trek to check out this Abandoned but not forgotten piece of Lehigh Valley Railroad History. What we believe to be a former freight depo. not far from a former passenger station which is now another buisness.
This former freight station now owned by RBMN which is posted that we did not venture inside, we decided to play it safe and take a look around the outside where we found remnants of the former Erie Line just behind it. Join us as we take a peek at this building build more then half a century ago. Hope you enjoy and don't forget to check out his video as well. A big thank you to JP for inviting me along to see this awesome piece of rail history of a bygone era.

@rj78productions88 Год назад

I certainly do as well.

@lovesmashbox Год назад

Always cool to have a look back at history..

@rj78productions88 Год назад

That it us because you never know how much longer it could be around. 😊

@brianabramo135 Год назад

Really cool to see this and how well preserved it is. It would be nice to see it restored

@Northcoastrails Год назад

Wow what a beautiful old building needs some TLC 🚂

@rj78productions88 Год назад

A little is probably spot on, doesn't look like it will take much.

@susanorr7535 Год назад

That area has so much history. Thanks for your explanation of that building and what the area is about, it’s interesting!

@JPVideos81 Год назад

Gotta love the bloopers 😆 Glad we got to document this one before anything happens to it.

@rj78productions88 Год назад

I am too. It is always neat to see any history, hopefully it will be around for many more years to come.

@susanorr7535 Год назад

We appreciate you and you have a wealth of knowledge to share. We like you as you are, and you give us your best!

@rj78productions88 Год назад

I still learn as I go and definitely do not know everything but am glad to share what I can. A big thank you for those kind words.

Thanks RJ and Jay , thanks , I am an LV Fan.

@adamtereska8734 Год назад

Great video and location. Seeing it repurposed as a model railroad location would be ideal.

@rj78productions88 Год назад

For sure Adam. Would be awesome especially with the real thing rolling past.

@mattPG78 Год назад

Pretty cool place indeed. Just loved the bloopers at the end. We all will figure this RU-vid thing out sooner or later. 😂

@rj78productions88 Год назад

The bloopers are always a lot of fun. 😁

Very cool location and video RJ! A great viewer suggestion! I laughed my hind end off watching JP'S video at the beginning when he said come along with me , and you came skipping behind him!🤣 great to see ya'll out for the great adventure's! Thanks for bringing us along!

@rj78productions88 Год назад

I couldn't help myself, he said to come along, so I did. 🤣

Great video! My grandfather Jack Koehler was a Lehigh Valley historian so I would love to see any Valley history saved! I agree that would be a great place for a museum or layout! Thanks again for sharing!!!!

@rj78productions88 Год назад

Thank you. That is cool to hear about your grandfather also.

@JamieMakin Год назад

Cool find RJ and Jay! I can totally see Reading & Northern fixing that up someday if they expand passenger service to that area. It's half hour up the line from Pittston, so I wouldn't rule that out, especially since they have been running Santa trains out of that location one weekend a year. And if not, I second your idea of rehabbing it to house a model train club!

@rj78productions88 Год назад

I did find a santa run ticket on the ground close by. I definitely like the model railroad idea myself. 😉

@StantonsJourneys Год назад

Definitely would make a good model railroader's club for sure. Great photos and bloopers at the end. Thanks for sharing your video of this historic location.

@rj78productions88 Год назад

And thank you for watching and enjoying it 😊

@mikearmstead8358 Год назад

Merry Christmas to you and your family RJ

@rj78productions88 Год назад

Merry Christmas to you as well.

The brick building is indeed the former LVRR passenger and freight station. The former tracks behind the station are the former LV Montrose branch. The larger building behind you was NOT the passenger station. I wish you folks would do some research before you give folks bad information. It really is available and not that hard.
