Lackawanna 2628 Returns to New Jersey

It's a heavy news week - when it rains it pours! Less than a week after the plan was announced, Lackawanna MU car 2628 has returned to New Jersey from its 37-year home in Industry, New York. The Tri-State Railway Historical Society posted on their Facebook page (no log-in required) with photos of the car arriving at the Whippany Railway Museum in Whippany, NJ, including the photo above. Many thanks to Mike Dodge for bringing this news to my attention!

As mentioned recently, car 2628 is now owned by TSRHS* and they plan for it to be cosmetically restored and placed on display at the old DL&W Montclair, NJ, terminal. For the moment, since it's physically located at Whippany* along with (restored) fellow DL&W car 2454, its "owner" has been updated in PNAERC to the Whippany Railway Museum with a notation that the car is actually owned by TSRHS and is only being stored at WRM.*
