Mileage is from DL&W Hoboken, by the way. It doesn't line up with the southern tier since that line uses mileage from the Erie in Jersey City. I think the route to Bingo via Scranton was about 20 miles shorter than via Port Jervis.

No way NH is 16 miles from Utica. 288 would make it 6 but I don't think
it's that far. NH to O&W 1 mile seems right.

Hey, you're right.

I misread the table. Uticker is 286 on the schedule. (I don't know where the endpoint on the DL&W was measured. Could be the roundhouse, or the Union station. They're maybe a mile apart?)

Thanks for the catch... :-D

Turntable and station are about 1/2 mile from each other. Do you know
the milemark at the Lackawanna/WS diamond. Interestingly there is
still a O&W mile marker on the little segment of it thats still used. About
a 1/2 mile south of the aboue mentioned diamond. #273, the mileage
from Weehawken.
