I could have sworn that I was once able to find a few websites that had some history and equipment photos of the electrification on the Erie’s Rochester Division. However, no matter what word string I use to search, I can’t find them. Anybody have any web addresses of websites dealing with the electrification?
Here is a link to a 1907 NY Times article about the electrification. There is posted somewhere on the web a more extensive article including photos about the project but I can't locate it at the moment. May have been from Railway Age or the Erie RR employee magazine.
