RE: (erielack) Three strikes and I'm out

I don't know how many people responded to this but this picture is the upper "saloon deck" of what appears to be one of the Scranton-class ferries.  I can remember seeing tis area between the stairwells still had a serving area in place but I never saw it in use.  Tradition has it that Lackawanna ferries had very good doughnuts.

Judging from what appears to be a row of commuters who are not dining and who are just reading their morning papers, I'd guess this "place" wasn't so much a local dining establishment as it was the actual ferry across the Hudson.

If that's so, and if in addition it was an Erie or DL&W passenger ferry, that would definitely make it list content, and hardly a test of patience.

Would someone enlighten this west end guy?  How did commuters on the DL&W lines get to jobs in NYC?  I'm sure this has been discussed here before, but I tend to focus more on the Erie side of things on the east end.

I don't want to tax the patience of this list yet again, but I just scanned this
image from the "Cliff Dwellers" book and in light of the dining discussions, I
thought this eating area might be of interest, too. Is this place even around
any more?
