From the Chenango Union of Norwich,NY Friday, September 6, 1872
D.L.& W. Railroad - On Sunday last, a gang
of workmen removed a portion of the trestle-work from the Auburn Branch, in
this village, at the point where the D.L.& W. passes under it. A substantial
iron structure was then placed upon the abutments which had been previously built,
and on Mondayi the trains passed over it on time. It is a good job.
The passenger depot is enclosed, and the roof is being covered
with slate. The frame of the freight depot is up, and will soon be enclosed. Iron
is laid from the junction south of the village, as far north as Mitchell Street,
and the construction train crossed the swing bridge near theline kiln on Monday.
The first train crossed East Street on Tuesday evening. A large amount of iron
is laid north of the village; and as soon as the swing bridge near the blast
furnaces is completed, we presume the road will be ready for business.
