Lynn & List:

Attached are three newspaper articles from my files on the possibility of DL&W entering Rochester. I'm sure research will turn up many more. This seems to have been a hot topic in 1888 -89.

Looking at some gazetteers in the library I found that the DL&W RR owned or occupied the corner on West Main and Washington in Rochester prior to 1888.
That is the same corner that the BR&P built their office on in 1905. (It still stands.) Did the DL&W ever have thoughts of a branch to Rochester ???
thanks
