English: Duryea Yard, formerly named (at least) Coxton Yard, and West Pittston Yard—the facility was built in 1870 by the Lehigh Valley Railroad as a hub to move coal from the Pennsylvania coal mines to Eastern markets and to connect with the Sayre yard at Sayre, Pennsylvania where it connected with the Erie Railroad. The railyard is located in the Borough of Duryea, PA, which in the greater Pittston, PA area.
• Erie did not operate the yard at any time, but used it extensively as a staging yard when Leigh Operated it.
• It is currently operated by the Reading Blue Mountain and Northern also known as the 'Reading and Northern', but ownership is unknown. Norfolk Southern runs freights up the mainline to Sayre yard and is the likely landlord, after the railroad acquired many Conrail assets.
