Freight ramp built in 1906 for the DL&W Railroad. The ramp remained in use until the 1980's when the Erie Lackawanna (after the merger of the Erie RR and the DL&W in 1960) ceased operations. At that time, the yards were acquired by the Blount Foundation, owners of Steamtown USA. This in turn was transformed into Steamtown National Historic Site in 1984.

There is no admission fee to visit the site, however there are fees for excursions. Steamtown's website may be found here: (visit link)
