How was it that the Erie got rights to Newberry Jct to get to the RDG ?

You can read details of the joint facility agreement posted in another forum by MJ Connor, former Erie employee. http://www.railfan.net/lists/erielack-d ... 00082.html

that is a very interesting link ! Thanks. Seems to be a bit of mystery there and a very unique arrangement. I'd be interested if anyone else has any additional info or comments, especially anything first hand.

I've always seen in Official Guides and Erie Timetables that the Corning-Newbury Jct. route was marked something like "Freight handled with Erie Power." I always wondered what that meant. Thanks for clueing me in.
