Re: (erielack) Youngstown

Paul,
 
The EL was lifted from about Westlake's crossing in downtown Youngstown to  
Hubbard. The line you see in operation today is the former NYC Youngstown 
branch  to Ashtabula. The Erie paralleled the NYC between Youngstown and Doughton  
(Hubbard). Doughton is now the point where the connection is made with the  
former EL to Sharon and Meadville. I should mention that the EL and NYC crossed  
each other at Valley St. tower in Youngstown and paralleled each other to  
Hubbard. Today, both NS and CSX use this line.
