From the Author:
This book deals primarily with the railroad after its 1982 reorganization which brought it out of bankruptcy. The book is designed to show the railroad as it was in the mid-1980s with a brief look at the past. I have many fond memories of the Morristown & Erie as a child, having lived on Abbett Ave. in Morristown, just down the street from the tracks.
Steam locos #10, 11 and 12 were the only ones I can remember seeing in those days. Along with some friends, we would look foward to hearing the whistle blow, which meant a train was either working in the small yard, or the train was returning from Essex Fells. Then all at once the steam was gone and a diesel appeared on the scene.
After we moved to Dover, it was about eight years before getting back to watch the M&E again. This time, armed with a camera, I was ready to record the scene. A large amount of film has been exposed since then to capture the activities of the railroad, with much of it in the early to mid-1980s.
