The New York, Ontario and Western rail yard is located in Mayfield, PA. This was the last large yard before the end of the line in Scranton. There are a few railcars still in the woods that used to be the yards. These cars include a few boxcars and some passenger coaches. The yards are now a final resting place for the remains of one of the breakers located in Carbondale or Mayfield. There are a pile of mine cars we have deemed the "mountain of mine cars". There are also many mine and railroad related artifacts there. This is a good location to find some intresting mine items.
These are the "after" pictures of them scraping the O & W yard. Luckily, we acquired two mine cars before they met the same horrible fate. You can see the restoration of these cars as it progresses.
