Pennsylvania Railroad Station, Belfast,NY

"I have a post card which shows a rail station in Cuba NY
I believe that this was on the old Pennsy line and was somewhere near where the Rinker oil company is located. I do remember growing up in Cuba that a train would come through once a week. There were tracks into the Acme Electric plant GLF and the old warehouse that was next to Guilford Dairy. There was also a old coal yard where the old grade school sets. I can remember them taking down the big stack.....John Lockwood-Dundee NY"
VIEWER COMMENT:
"That is the Pennsy RR Station in Cuba, New York, no doubt about it. I walked or rode my bike past it too many times as I was growing up."
