  • Chuck Walsh discusses the history of the Lackawanna Cut-Off, the DL&W's engineering marvel that shortened their route across northern New Jersey via a series of cuts, fills, and magnificent viaducts. Chuck adds current-day updates on the restoration of the Cut-Off, now bolstered due to support from Amtrak.

    32:52: That's a Gantlet Track, not Gauntlet. Different meaning.

    There should be a waiver for environmental issues when former lines are being restored. Treat them as if they had never ceased service.

      Depends on erosion or physical deterioration of the ROW

      Are you related to Chuck or Mayor Tom Walsh of Andover?

    How well do you know this 'Chuck' guy? The reason I ask is,... this all seems sloppy. He claims he is a train enthusiast, yet he has over 60 videos on his You Tube channel and none of them have him in or next to a train. No trains in any of his videos! He says he used to be in 'Big Pharma' and that he is the president of 'the North Jersey Rail Commuter Association', but I have never seen a commuter or anything like that in his videos either. No commuters in any of his videos! I live next to this line and some of the things he says about it are straight-up lies. I asked him in the comments section on his You Tube channel if he even lived along this line? And if not, why has he been pushing for this line for decades? He acted all squirrely and made my comment not visible to anyone that reads the comments. Seriously, what is all of this? It all seems like sloppy work. All I wanted to do was see some videos with trains and this 'Lackawanna Cut-Off Chuck' guy took offense at me saying that. I have autism and I love trains, is it too much to ask for some trains?
