The Lackawanna Old Road was part of the original mainline of the Delaware, Lackawanna and Western Railroad (DLW) in New Jersey. Opened in 1856, the Old Road ran 39.6 miles (63.7 km) from Port Morris Junction to Slateford Junction. It was relegated to secondary status after the 1911 completion of the Lackawanna Cut-Off, which was 11 miles (18 km) shorter.
