Geocache Description:

Stinkin' Railroad

In the northern section of Lambertville, the "land of promise" wealthy factory owners and merchants built large homes in the Italianate and French Second Empire architectural styles along North Union. Industries grew and flourished along the river bank and canal south from Delevan Street.

Railroad shops had a large influence. Shortly after the completion of the Lambertville-Flemington branch in 1854, the shops began to build locomotives and freight and passenger cars. The Pennsylvania Railroad took over the old Belvidere-Delaware Railroad in 1871 and the shops were converted into maintenance yards and repair facilities.

They forgot about these 2 in need of repair at GZ.

Secret for geocachers only: Parking is available at GZ Drive behind the Lambertville Inn, at busy times there is someone in driveway to collect parking, just drive on by, wave to cloud their mind with the geo-force as this is a public right-of-way leading to the state park beyond . Terrain for the cache is 1.5 but the road back is about a 3.
