"Sal annotated" - an image of an EL era topo map of Salamanca, NY to which I added arrows locating the Erie Station; the B&O (nee BR&P) Salamanca Station now the Salamanca Rail Museum; the approximate lcation of the B&O East Salamanca Station; and the approximate location of the PRR Station.

"Salamanca Plan" -an annotated composite photo of a portion of a blueprint of the Erie yard, ca1930-40. The location of the turntable and roundhouse is evident. The yard throat (east end) is on the bridge over main street- known in old postcards as "the Subway". There is a dark rectangle to the left of the roundhouse area- this is the machine shop, destroyed in a fire (1935?) The feature "Road to Little Valley" is the street running between the yard and the hills north of town. It swings off to the NW (out top left beyond image area). The double bridge is in that general area. Little Valley, about 6 miles away, was my hometown.
