The Lackawanna County Rail Authority approached GVT to operate its owned rail lines within Lackawanna and Monroe Counties from Scranton northeast to the city of Carbondale on lines of the former Delaware and Hudson Railway's Penn Division mainline, from Scranton southeast into Monroe County on lines of the former Delaware, Lackawanna & Western Railroad, and from Scranton southwest to Montage Mountain, Moosic on lines of the former Lackawanna and Wyoming Valley Railroad third-rail interurban streetcar line. These are the lines hosting the seasonal passenger trains of both the Steamtown National Historic Site and the Electric City Trolley Museum and now under the jurisdiction of the new Pennsylvania Northeast Regional Rail Authority. In 2015 the authority extended the Delaware–Lackawanna's lease for five years.〔 〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Delaware–Lackawanna Railroad」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
