Does anyone know when the last mixed train ran on the Attica branch of the Erie? Ted

I just found the answer to my question in Bill Gordon's book. Apparently it was a quote from a newspaper clipping or maybe a notice the railroad would put in its depots. "After Friday, September 30, 1927, the Erie Railroad will discontinue all Passenger Service on the Attica Branch between Avon, N.Y. and Attica, N. Y." Ted
