Re: (rshsdepot) Harriman, NY (Erie)



Dana,

be sure to get the whole URL in your browser, the links wrapped and should
really be:

http://digilib.syr.edu/cdm4/item_viewer.php?CISOROOT=/erie_railroad&CISOPTR=1533&REC=3
 
http://digilib.syr.edu/cdm4/item_viewer.php?CISOROOT=/erie_railroad&CISOPTR=1534&REC=4  
 
http://digilib.syr.edu/cdm4/item_viewer.php?CISOROOT=/erie_railroad&CISOPTR=1533&REC=3  

I was able to view them without any problems aside from the syr.edu site
being somewhat slow.
