I have a couple of photos of the east side of the combination station at Gilbert NY. This is the back (non track) side of the station and there are few photos of this side of these stations. There is a photo of the back side of the Lodi NY station in David Marcham's Lehigh Valley Memories. I took these photos around 1990 just before the station fell in. It was bitterly cold that day (-5 F) so the photos were taken rather quickly. All the stations along this portion of the main line were built to the same general design. For some reason this station was larger than most of the other stations; about the same size as the station at Batavia NY.
