Live railroad, yes. It's the Southern tier line of NS now former CR , EL,
Erie. The bridge is slated to be replaced. I don't have the timetable handy.
It's been in poor shape for many years, more than 10, now.

> The Portage Bridge, as I see it, is (compass) north, (timetable) west of
River Jct, where the low-grade River Line takes off for Coba Jct.  The
Portage bridge is, therefore, on the old Erie line to Buffalo.  Is that
still a live railroad?  If so, why?

several images on http://images.google.com using keywords
Letchworth+Erie+Bridge. It looks like a classy bridge in a beautiful
location near waterfalls. Let's hope that when and however they rebuild it,
they keep the setting in mind and not slap just anything in there.
