Q re: 765's Sat/Sun Buffalo-Corning excursions
Author: JPB

Apparently the train is to spend 12pm-2pm at Corning and I'm wondering where its parking spot will be. Is it the site of the demolished Erie station?  Assuming passengers will be allowed to detrain, it doesn't look like that location is ideal given its elevation above street level . Any thoughts? Thanks.

The only place along the mainline is just west of CP Corning by the ex-DL&W station area. It need lot of tree clearing but buses can access the area. If I was running things I would back the train into the former NYC Corning Yard and unload there. There is one old RR bridge that the buses would have to travel over as that is the only was inot the yard by road. This would get the trrain off the main and people off the tracks.
