The street is "Railroad Lane".

Judging by the street view of the building and nearby gondola on the siding, I would guess it's MOW. Hopefully someone who better knows can either confirm or deny.

I'm guessing that taking the trip Rt 14 and then west on Rt 104 would've also had clearance issues That or weight limits. Also, the size of the trucking equipment wouldn't allow some movements - one example being in Lyons where Rte. 14 makes a zig-zag move north of the canal. But weight limits also...

Opposite of Cohocton Rd. north of Corfu, there's clearly a ROW to the east. It seems the road used a segment of it to the west.

Hate being the pessimist because I love restoration as much as the next person, but I still think we'll end up nicking our chins as we shave with the razor blades made from these artifacts.

That place has almost fully returned to nature, some 45 years after LV closed up shop. Wonder if CSX is still using the old 17 track still? I believe that was the yard lead into the TIfft Terminal area.

That definitely looks like some awfully light rail. I'm thinking it could be interurban but not sure where it could be.

No problem! I hope you are just as mistaken about Russell Station no longer getting unit trains of coal, the swing bridge being removed and a few other such things! :-D Me too! Maybe I'll discover the "West Hojack" is still in place and traffic is still running to/from Model City". :P

**UPDATE** 1/26/21 - Well, I really whiffed on this one. Back on January 8, I mistook a different residence for the one in my original post. I am happy to report this little overpass is still in place. My apologies for this "fake news". Somehow I mixed things up. Feel free to throw tomatoe...

Video is absolutely awful.... shaky handheld footage as he walks and pokes around. No wonder he disabled the comments. Jesus, that was unwatchable. I thought I was watching NYPD Blue on steroids. Yes, it'll leave in chunks and eventually we'll be shaving with the razor blades made from the scrap.
