Re: (erielack) FW: Old Photo ID needed on RR.net

EJ had some factories along North St by then, but they may have been too new 
to show up on a 1904 map. It doesn't look like anything I recognize in the 
area, even 100 years later. The Susquehanna River is nowhere near that part 
of Endicott, and doesn't come close to the railroad til you get between 
Endwell and Johnson City, where it is in a flood plain, and there is no big 
industry such as shown in the photo. Today it is occupied by what was the 
IBM Country Club. The Erie was not close to the river in JC either, as it 
curves to the south by a mile or so.
