Notes About Existing Stations... Delta Place (PRR) - This was originally the PRR depot at Orphanage, a flag stop on the PRR's Shamokin branch about 4 miles east of Sunbury. It was moved to Delta Place in the late 1980s. Mifflinurg (Lewisburg & Tyrone) - Although some have cited a build date of 1888 for this station, according to the Sanborn maps either a new station was built between 1906 and 1913 or the original station was expanded. The station shown on the 1906 map is smaller than the station on the 1913 map. Vicksburg (Lewisburg & Tyrone) - A new station was built here in 1887 and again in 1895. Station was moved across the road from its original location and now serves as a residence. White Deer (RDG) - The White Deer and Reading Station & Museum. Built in 1910 by the Reading RR who took over the line from the Catawissa, Danville, & Milton RR whose original station burned on October 9, 1909 (built 1872). In Feb 1910 a contract to build a new station was awarded to James Bennett company for $6257.37. New station was completed on July 21, 1910. Currently the depot is a museum with rolling stock, etc. Central Pennsylvania Chapter NRHS Museum, also operates (very) short excursions. This was also the eastern terminus of the White Deer Valley RR - a narrow gauge lumber line. The Reading agent at the station also handled the freight and passenger business of the White Deer & Loganton RR here.
