Tunkhannock, PA: Lehigh Valley (LV) Depot and US-6

(Satellite?, I could not find it.)

US-6 Overview

Lehigh Valley Railroad & Railroad Photography posted
My grandfather Jack Koehler photographed the Lehigh Valley Railroad station in Tunkhannock, PA on October 20, 1971. The station still stands but in bad shape.

A lot of the railroad property was used to build the new US-6 route around the downtown.

The branch is abandoned, and the single track going through the area is now owned by Reading & Northern.

Brownsville, PA: Abandoned Union Station (Monongahela and P&LE) and US-40 (National Road)

(Satellite)

US-40 Overview

Street View, May 2023

Abandoned by Sherman Cahal posted six photos with the comment:

Union Station once served the Monongahela Railway in Brownsville, Pennsylvania. Beyond ticketing booths for the railroad's passenger operations, it held shops and businesses, a restaurant, and offices for both the railroad and the local community. The Pennsylvania and the Pittsburgh & Lake Erie used the station as well.

Passenger service out of the building ended in 1954. The offices were phased out by 1993, after the Monongahela was merged into Conrail. At one point the deteriorating station was proposed as the centerpiece of a riverfront development with a floating casino, a wharf, and a marina—but riverboat gambling failed to pass, and the plans died with it. The last tenant left 26 years ago.

This map made it easy to find the train station. It also shows how US-40 used to use the Market Street and Bridge Boulevard Bridges when it went through town. See Lane Bridge for the current US-40 crossing of the Monongahela River.

P&LE = Pittsburgh & Lake Erie

Since the Monongahela remained independent until it was shoved into Conrail, I use the label "rrOther" for it. Only the two routes along the river have survived, and NS got both of them when Conrail was broken up. This map also shows both the old and new routings of US-40 through the area.

The railroad was the C&NW.

A satellite image shows that the tracks still exist. And it looks like all three road crossing were reconstructed rather recently.

Google, Oct 25, 2024

To my surprise, because UP bought C&NW, this route is now owned by BNSF.

And this map agrees.

Since the Milwaukee tracks were south of the Minneapolis & St. Louis tracks, the station would be south of the tracks. So it looks like it would be the rectangle just east of Wooddale Avenue.

I couldn't resist including the grain elevator near the upper-right corner. That was torn down for Cityscape.

Comments on Michael's post

The town has a big new elevator and a couple of old elevators.

Street View, Sep 2025

None of the big bins existed in 2012 and the older elevator was bigger.

Street View, Jun 2012

The new elevator sometimes has a big ground pile.

The town still has a couple of wood grain elevators.

"Nebraska, Kansas & Colorado Railway (NKCR) owns and operates approximately 509 miles of track in three states and carries a diverse mix of traffic including wheat, corn, coal and fertilizer. NKCR, one of several railroads in Nebraska, has benefited from its ability to attract high throughput grain elevators to its lines due to its superior service record and excellent relationship with BNSF. More specifically, NKCR recently made considerable track improvements in conjunction with upgrade investments by the owners of grain elevators at Venango, Nebraska, Loomis, Nebraska and Holyoke, Colorado, each of which now loads 110-car shuttle trains. In addition to grain, NKCR ships liquid fertilizer shuttle unloaders at Maywood, Nebraska, Imperial, Nebraska and Holyoke, Colorado in addition to the dry fertilizer shuttle unloader at Loomis, Nebraska."

They filled in the pits but left the foundation. We can easily tell that two of the stalls were longer than the other stalls.

The bridge that crosses Lake Ewauna (Klamath River) to serve the industries on the west side of the river still exists. Both the UP and BNSF railyards are as big today, if not bigger, than they were in the 1950s.
