Amfleet II #25001, one of the many coaches of the Lake Shore Limited, and looking down the long platform (just one door is open for coach passengers).
Looking across to flags on top of the historic depot as one person stands on the platform watching a family member off
The passengers have finished boarding, the Lake Shore arrived 14 minutes early. Erie is still NOT a smoke stop, although the train is early
Looking down the platform towards the New York sleepers, no other doors are open, the sealed former baggage/freight elevator landing is visible
A tower in the building beyond, I think from the freight elevator
The former opening of the baggage elevator
Looking past the rivets of the historic freight and baggage elevator
The rear Amfleet II coaches, Vieweliner Diner, and New York Sleepers off in the distance, the New York sleepers are beyond the end of the platform
Heading down the stairs into the station so the caretaker can lock up the platform
The elevator to train platform only, and another sign for exit in the odd windowless space
Looking up the staircase to the platform with red handrails and white walls
The bottom landing of the elevator
Sign on a yellow stool for Amtrak: Welcome to Erie, and further signs to Station
A snow blower outside the staircase up to the platform
The corridor (past sealed openings) with white walls to Station from the tracks
An oversized sign in the exit from the platform with To Trains or Exit, and pictographs for amenities including stairs, elevators, accessibility, restrooms and ground transportation
Looking down the corridor from station to platform
The caretaker opens the door trying to close off the walkway to the tracks at Erie, on the final little ramp down into the waiting room
A corner of the waiting room with paperwork for parking and a computer for train status
