Lackawanna Cut-Off Rehabilitation (Andover/Roseville Tunnel areas) - February 8, 2024

    ALL ABOARD ! Not much progress on the line itself or at the future site of the Andover Station.  The work seems to be focused on the Tunnel during the winter months and thus the need for large tarps placed at both east and west portals to keep the workers nice and comfy inside, or as comfy as one can be in an old railroad tunnel. --------------------------------------- The first (5) pictures are looking west towards Andover from atop the Hill Cut --------------------------------------- The next (6) pictures are looking east towards Roseville Tunnel  from atop the Hill Cut --------------------------------------- The next (4) pictures are looking down at the west portal of Roseville Tunnel from the Johnson Park side of Colby Cut --------------------------------------- The next (2) pictures are looking west towards Andover from atop the west portal of Roseville Tunnel --------------------------------------- The next picture is looking east from the east portal of Roseville Tunnel ----
