Re: (erielack) Binghamton information needed

Bob...

For the west end of the Erie yard, you might be able to gather what you need by careful observation of photographs.  I'm sure there are several good pictures that show various parts of the track arrangement on the west side of Binghamton, anyway.  While not exact like a track chart, it might get you close enough to capture the feel of it.  It would be hard to get it to fit exactly anyway.  On my layout plan, even though I tried to copy the exact track layout in Bath NY, I still found myself compressing various spots in different ways in order to make it fit in my space.

Just a thought...
