Cranberry Lake Notes
(excerpts)
Work will be commenced next week on the Y or turn
table at the old stone quarry, so that the locomotives may be turned
at the lake. The sidings are also being extended to accommodate
a large number of passenger coaches.
The Lackawanna
management are so well pleased with the business at the Lake, that
they have a force of men at work this week extending the new station
platform and shed three times it's original length. The train shed
will be one of the largest on the M. & E. division, and will shelter
1,000 people from rain.
The story recently
started that the Lackawanna people intended to abandon this resort
was shown to an official the other day. He smiled, and replied that
the work that was being done by the company at this resort and other
improvements contemplated this fall, was a sufficient answer to
these silly rumors.
