Lackawanna Cut-Off - Part 5: Johnsonburg NJ

This video is about Johnsonburg (Frelinghuysen Township in Warren County NJ) on the Lackawanna Cut-Off, and includes eyewitness accounts by Mr. Gerald Chrusz, who worked for the Erie Lackawanna and who is the owner of the Johnsonburg General Store, out of which he arranged for shipments of farm goods to arrive on the Lackawanna Cut-Off up until the end of Conrail rail service on the line. We'll also visit the station site and Armsrong Cut, the site of a large landslide in 1941. Finally, we'll visit a farm through which the Cut-Off ran and a poignant story about how one supporter of the Cut-Off became a supporter. Filmed on December 30 and 31, 2016.
