No problem! I honestly don't think Blairstown station would really impact development, the issues have always been about the viaducts. I would be very happy if trains ran on the cut-off once again.

Wow, Bryce, you are a young train enthusiast. I am very happy to see young people interested in trains. My kids graduated in '98 and '06, so another whole generation, lol. I left Marksboro in 1993 and moved over to PA in 1997, so it's been a long time. ( I started visiting my wife's family there in 1975, moved there part time in 1981 and we bought our farm in 1984. I'm an old timer.
I remember very clearly when they tore up the tracks on the cut off and sent them to Japan I think. About 1985. Our farm was actually on the Susquehanna ROW which straddled our property. There was the foundation of the old creamery and across the road was where the station stood. My (ex) wife's grandfather used to take the train from NYC and get off there. Near the old mill if you know where that is.
