Description
An account of the resource
The subtitle to this Currier & Ives print says a lot: "lightning express trains leaving the junction." At this time, the town of Hornellsville (now known as Hornell) was the dinner stop for an overnight express train between Buffalo and New York City. The image here underwent several modifications over the years: a brighter-hued version, and then one created for the Erie Railway with destinations painted on the railcars and "Hornellsville" appended to the building.
