Lodi Branch Railroad
The Lodi Branch Railroad Co, constructed and controlled by the New Jersey and New York Railroad and then leased by the New York, Susquehanna and Western Railway and then the Erie Railroad, was a short east–west branch line, around 2 miles long, from the Williams Ave Depot in Hasbrouck Heights, New Jersey westward to the Lodi station at Main Street in Lodi, New Jersey, United States. On paper, the Lodi Branch was a separate entity from the NJ&NY, which made it simple for the NYS&W to lease the entire line in 1883, but it was still necessary to exchange cars with the NJ&NY to bring them to the NYS&W main line in Hackensack where there was a junction. In 1896, the NYS&W built a junction and a shorter northwards branch to its main line, called the Hackensack and Lodi Railroad. This was preferable for several reasons: better access to Hackensack, New Jersey Hackensack is a city in and the county seat of Bergen County, New Jersey, United States.

Erie Railroad
The Erie Railroad was a railroad that operated in the northeastern United States, originally connecting New York City — more specifically Jersey City, New Jersey, where Erie's Pavonia Terminal, long demolished, used to stand — with Lake Erie, at Dunkirk, New York. It expanded west to Chicago with its 1865 merger with the former Atlantic and Great Western Railroad, also known as the New York, Pennsylvania and Ohio Railroad (NYPANO RR). Its mainline route proved influential in the development and economic growth of the Southern Tier of New York State, including cities such as Binghamton, Elmira, and Hornell. The Erie Railroad repair shops were located in Hornell and was Hornell's largest employer. Hornell was also where Erie's mainline split into two routes, one northwest to Buffalo and the other west to Chicago. On October 17, 1960, the Erie merged with former rival Delaware, Lackawanna & Western Railroad to form the Erie Lackawanna Railroad. The Hornell repair shops were c ...
