NEW YORK RAILROAD ENTHUSIASTS

NYRRE 2005 Labor Day Trip. Roebling's Delaware Aqueduct, over the Delaware River between Minisink Ford, NY and Lackawaxen, PA. This is the oldest existing wire suspension bridge in the United States. The suspension cables are hidden by the canal sides since the bridge was restored by the National Park Service in 1985. This was an early project, begun in 1847, of John A. Roebling, who would design the Brooklyn Bridge twenty years later. Taken on 9/2/05 by Steve Kalka.
