Here's about 25,000 sites, should keep you busy for awhile. :D

Wikipedia is often a good place to start: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DL%26W (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DL%26W)
I appreciate those sites, but unfortunately they do not have the information that I am looking for. My search is more along the lines of employees of the railroad. I have one newspaper clipping from the 1860s for my great grandfather but can't find anything else.

Did you try the Lackawanna Historical Society? A search will bring up their web address.
