Re: (erielack) refinery at Wellsville

Ed,

There was at least one, the Wellsville Refining Company. It was gone by 
the end of the 1920's though as many of the small refineries in the 
area. The refinery was across the river located on the Buffalo & 
Susquehanna, not the Erie.

There was a Standard Oil distribution facility located on the Erie on 
Oak Street where it came to the Erie tracks. That also partially answers 
you second question about how the gasoline was delivered in general terms.
