        Sidney

        [station]
        The NYO&W and Delaware & Hudson had a long history of co-operation at Sidney, NY. This included sharing a single passenger station within the village. This is the O&W side of the original wooden station.

        [station]
        Prior to August of 1913, the wooden station was replaced with a brick structure. Aas with the previous station, the north side of the structure faced the D&H tracks, and the south side faced O&W trackage. This structure no longer exists.

        New Berlin Junction

        [station]
        This is the Cooperstown Junction station as it appears today. It was moved to Mt. Upton.

        Guilford

        Oxford

        Norwich

        [station]
        The O&W passenger station in Norwich, circa 1920. This structure no longer exists.

        [roundhouse]
        The O&W roundhouse in Norwich, circa 1908.

        [station]

        Today, very little of the O&W remains in Norwich. A high school and garden apartments were built over the old O&W yards. All that is left is this comemorative placque in from of the high school.

        [station]

        Bridge abutment. As with everything else, the reminders of the O&W are fast fading away.

        Plymouth

        Oneida

        [station]
        The station at Oneida (Oneida Castle). The upper level is, I believe, an electric line, with the O&W on the lower level. This station no longer exists - in its place stands a Fay's Drugstore.
