(erielack) Olean, New York

Greetings,  I am a "newbie"  I grew up across the street from the EL in 
Olean, New York.  My youth is filled with recollections of sitting for 
hours watching the trains go by and listening to them at night to put me 
to sleep.  Passenger service was still available until I was about 4 
(1961 or so)  My Grandmother would come from Salamanca to visit.  I 
sadly watched them tear down the freighthouse in 1975 and again 10 or 15 
years ago was shocked as they tore down the depot out of the spite of 
some rich spoiled person.  My question to you all is where can I find 
more about the Olean EL and pictures of it?  I recently decided to 
awaken my long dormant train desires by getting into HO modeling.  I 
have a few Erie and EL components and wonder if anyone has any ideas as 
to were the best place to purchase more Erie and EL related train 
merchandise.  Thanks for reading     Jeff
