Just to add one more tidbit to this thread...
Sometime in 2004-2005, My wife and I were back in Ithaca visiting the old Alma Mater, and were talking a walk on one of the short segment of the old EC&N ROW that has been converted to a short trail. This is on the East Ithaca portion of town. There was a building very close to Mitchell St., that had a spur that clearly ran into the building at one point. It was cool to see... I was some sort of Cornell U. facilities building, but beyond the steam plant. The door was clearly large enough to allow a boxcar inside.

It is the large Brick building in the middle of page.
