Lackawanna Trains to Maybrook

The running of freight trains of the Lackawanna Railroad for Boston and other eastern points over the Lehigh & Hudson River railroad, via the new Y at Andover Junction, was commenced on Thursday last when the first train was sent through to Maybrook. For the present there will be two trains each way daily. The transfer of all freight for the east is now made at Port Morris instead of Hoboken, and is run through by the new connection at Andover Junction to its eastern destination. A number of these clerks and employees at the Hoboken freight office have been transferred to Port Morris, and that village is putting on new life. Before the close of the month all freight for the east will go over this route and the floats at Hoboken will be abandoned. It is given out that the Pennsylvania and New Jersey Central railroads will also make this route an outlet for their eastern trade, and some dozen trains daily will go over this line from Port Morris to Maybrook.
