Subject: RE; New DL&W Buffalo Freight Station
"Acme_Fast_Freight_Photos_010.jpg" - image/jpeg, 1500x1125 (24bit)

Intrigued by the recent posts regarding the new DL&W freight station, I took a ride over to the Reiman Street area this morning. The former freight yard and buildings are still being used by CSX and the area is designated as a "Material Staging Yard". There is no rail access as all track on the former Black Rock Branch is long gone. I climbed up on the branch's embankment hoping for a picture of the overall facility. But the overgrowth is high and the attached shot gives only a general indication of the conditions. The remaining former concrete loading platforms appear solid but the roofs are crumbling. I also walked around to the front and shot a picture of what was probably Acme's office building, now used similarly by CSX. Thanks to Ron and Henry for highlighting another "lost" DL&W facility.
