(erielack) Mr. Lincoln and the Erie

[Wdburt1_@_aol.com]

Mr. Lincoln rode the Erie from Dunkirk eastward on his way to the Cooper 
Union speech, having come in from the west on the LS&MS.  That was still a very 
active interchange and transfer point in those days.  I have seen multiple 
references to this trip over the Allegany Division (then known as the Western 
Division) and have an article about it somewhere.
