Thanks Don!
I was out today just east of Churchville where the West Shore crossed over the ex-NYC main. Bridge is
long gone, but the abutments still remain. Wish I had drive just a few feet further west to poke around this
area.
But I did get some photos of the abutments that are still in place where the West Shore crossed over top
the main-line......caught 5 trains while I was there late morning. Here are a few photos.
An open view looking time-table east on the main (but direction north-east).
A zoom-in on the west abutment......
And the east abutment.
