Eastern Railroad Discussion > Black River & Western former W&W GP9 811 This Morning

Black River & Western (BDRV) GP9 811 working on the Bel-Del at Lehigh Jct. in Phillipsburg NJ this morning.
The 811 recently acquired from Winchester & Western Railroad, was built 2/1959 for the Nickel Plate Railroad 811, becoming Norfolk & Western 2811 and now wears its original number again.

Another former W&W, Dover & Rockaway River (DRRV) GP9 732, is on today’s NS 39G to Allentown. Tied down around ROCK on the lower Harrisburg line. Should be on Sunday’s Washington local H74 in transit to Dover NJ.
