Reply to "D&H out of Scranton?"

It wasn't quite fully abandoned out of Scranton.  About 15-20 miles from Minooka Junction to Carbondale is still in use.  In 1985, Guilford sold this segment to Lackawanna County (PA) Rail Authority. From Carbondale north, Guilford tore up the rails, and sold off a large fill area near Starrucca, PA.  Some bridges were sold for scrap, while others still remain.  The portion where the tracks are missing is now a hiking trail going to the New York State border.
