The Erie RR built a powerhouse for its electrified RR in Jersey City in 1924ca. It was built on the corner of 9th and Provost. Anyone have any more information on the powerhouse or even better, a picture of it?
This link might help. I'm going to be in Jersey City this weekend. I'll try to get a current picture of it. Also plan to prowl some of the existing structures of the Erie Railroad.
