Slateford Yard used to be known as Slateford Junction - a point where freight trains stayed west of the Delaware River and passenger trains went east into New Jersey across a bridge spanning the Delaware River. The bridge still exists...but the tracks on it have been removed. Below is a previously-uploaded WunderPhoto showing the bridge...and additional information.

SWDM; 60+; 2 grown daughters; 4 indoor cats. Have had only 4 addresses ever - all of which have been within 25 mi. of each other in NE PA, where civilization has become too noticeable. Productivity at this end suffered a setback quite awhile ago, but picture-taking is an attempt to hopefully show that it has at least partially been restored - with some titles and/or captions intending to increase the "fun" of the process. Comments of support have made life immeasurably better. It is hugely attractive that this site provides so many well-done glimpses of the world. My oldest WunderPhotos which understandably weren't anybody's favorites - and thousands of other pics - can no longer be seen by clicking on "Visit My Website" next to this bio. The site (Webshots) has been restructured, resulting in the undoing of many, many hours of effort. "My WunderBlogs" might have provided pleasing viewing...but photos there, too, have been wiped out by the restructuring; and the blogs probably won't be restored until late 2013. The WunderBlog space is much appreciated and I wish that I could add to it - and upload to WunderPhotos - more often...but dealing with this disturbing restructuring will be my top priority well into 2013. |

Decades ago, this was the operation of a single railroad. But presently, Slateford Yard is the northern end of a Norfolk-Southern route and the southern end of the Delaware-Lackawanna Railroad. The two companies occasionally exchange equipment at Slateford Yard. For example, the empty cars in the newer photo will be loaded at a lumber yard, which is a customer of the D-L RR. Although Slateford Yard is in PA, barely visible through the empty cars is the river; and beyond is the fifth most-elevated hill in NJ.
