Lehigh Valley's extensive yard and shop complex was at one time the major employer in the valley.  Photograph 
above shows the facility in April, 1972.  Much of it is long-gone but the car shops continue to rebuild freight 
equipment for a private contractor and the hundred-year-old Sayre Depot is now home to the Sayre Historical Society.  
Norfolk Southern serves the Ithaca [NY] rail line to the north and interchanges trains with the new Lehigh Railway
 in the yard tracks south of the depot.  Sayre continues to see train activity many days a week
