Does the attached help clear up the diagram?"

Also the large rectangular building just south of the DL&W mainline approaching the tunnel portals was the "Lackawanna" Warehouse. The photo clearly show how it was served out of the DL&W freight yard. I spent a summer in the early 1960's, while in high school, packing book shipments on the 7th floor there. My work station was on the north side, with a great view of the railroad action. I still remember every morning about 10:30, the Phoebe Snow heading west, with its two E-8's laying down a thick smoke screen of white exhaust smoke as they accelerated into the tunnels.
