Re: (erielack) Steamtown Images--August 31, 2013 (C3236 thru C3240)

Good find Don.    Looks like the Cayuga Breaker has been  reduced in size 
between the 1905 photo and the 1916 photo.   Also  confirms that from Cayuga 
east, two tracks were signaled eastward and only track  one was signaled 
west ward, that being from Bridge 60 to Cayuga.
 
Thanks

C3237-C3240 are all definitely Cayuga Breaker and the Von Storch  shaft 
area just south of Cayuga near Theodore St. Evidence this shot of  Cayuga:

It  appears Taber's old road mile post for Cayuga (149) in the DL&W 20th  
Century Vol 2 book is incorrect. Based on these photos, Cayuga is somewhere  
around 147.
