The Erie Lackawanna Railroad Company resulted from the merger of two companies in 1960. These were the Erie Railroad and the Delaware, Lackawanna and Western (known as Lackawanna). Both roads were based primarily in the northeastern states of Pennsylvania and New York. The Erie offered service from Jersey City, New Jersey (metropolitan New York) to Hammond, Indiana (metropolitan Chicago). The Erie Lackawanna Railway Company Records primarily contains legal and financial documents and maps. It mainly consists of materials used and produced throughout the railroad's final reorganization and liquidation process which began in 1972 and ended in 1991.
