Chris,

Since you and several other people expressed an interest and me being a 
map geek, I've included a map of the Painted Post-Corning area with the 
various railroads superimposed on a modern street layout. It isn't 
totally accurate, just a fast and dirty, but it gives a good idea of how 
tracks were arranged in later years.

The map doesn't explicitly show the old Erie main prior to relocation in 
the early 1950's, but Route 352 is effectively the ROW through Corning.

Regards,

Will Shultz
