Antique 1917 West Shore Railroad Ticket Stub
The West Shore Railroad was built to connect New York City with Buffalo and compete with the New York Central
The line began in 1874 and reached Buffalo around 1884, it was leased by New York Central and Hudson River Railroad Company in 1885, it operated this way until 1952 when it merged into the New York Central, and passenger service was discontinued in 1959
