Eastern Railroad Discussion > The Sunbury SubdivisionDate: 11/22/14 14:09 The Sunbury Subdivision Author: m1bprr Well today 11/22/14 not exactly a Kodachrome day, as we used to say in the old days, finds me on the Canadian Sunbury Subdivision around my home in Luzerne County, PA. Nothing too exciting today, a south bound CP 458 aka 11R once on the NS.
Light engines have dropped their train north of this location to pick up a repaired "cripple" then back down to their train. Ed K.    Date: 11/22/14 14:10 Re: The Sunbury Subdivision Author: m1bprr Having picked up their train now underway at Breaker Rd, the chase is on.

Ed K.    Date: 11/22/14 14:14 Re: The Sunbury Subdivision Author: m1bprr 931 under way northbound as I give chase hoping to catch it at Nanticoke, PA which I did.
Ed K.    Date: 11/22/14 14:17 Re: The Sunbury Subdivision Author: m1bprr Chase ended here at Broadway, Nanticoke. FYI for those who don't know this strech of railroad was once part of the PRR Wilkes-Barre Branch which ended at "Buttonwood" Wilkes-Barre, PA.

Date: 11/22/14 20:54 Re: The Sunbury Subdivision Author: rbmn5022 Cool shots! 931 is the Enola/NS to Montreal/CN manifest (aka NS 31T/CN L529). This particular train was actually a detoured NS 22K that normal runs via Buffalo, and was running as a 2-931 on CP.
