The station was used by the NYC/Big Four and NKP/LE&W. In this 1961 aerial photo, the depot was across the NKP tracks from High Street. The building in the lower-left corner was the Big Four freight house, and the building in the center along the top was the NKP freight house. I think the photo shows the Big Four side of the depot. The NKP was behind it on the north side.

Jim Kelling: Dennis DeBruler thanks for this information; I saw the Big Four freight depot a few years ago but it is threatened by demolition

This map marked the two freight houses correctly, but the depot is a little bit west of its actual location.
