Re: (erielack) Photo

Fred, I have collected quite a few old postcards and one comment I would
make here is that the syntax of the caption cannot be relied on to mean
that the Powder Mills belonged to the RR, just that the photo included the
Erie Station, and it also included the Powder Mills, in that order, L to R.

Neat to see it, thanks for putting it up!
