(erielack) Re: The Erie historical marker
Harold asked: Being somewhat biased in favor of DL&W, and somewhat of a
newbie, I
ask, What is "The Erie historical marker?"

The first ground for the Erie was broken at Deposit , New York.
November. 7, 1835.
Here's a photo of the Station with an Erie GP-7. The insert you see is a
reproduction of the plaque that's mounted in the monument that you saw
accross from the F-7's in the previous overhead photo I sent.
Since they (The Railroad?) moved the marker was the groundbreaking 1
mile east or west of the current location of the marker?
