(Satellite, I could not find the coaling tower)
According to a USGS map, the railroad is now owned by Ontario Central.

| Roger Durfee posted Another stop on my western New York jaunt was Manchester, NY to see the former Lehigh Valley roundhouse. I'll return after the leaves are gone for some less cluttered views. It has 30 stalls and was used by the LV up until the early 1970s. Manchester was a big division point for the LV. Like the Buffalo Central Terminal in my previous post, there are plans and money to restore for reuse (non RR), but in contrast to BCT, little has been done so far. 09-22-2024 |

| Dennis DeBruler commented on Daniel's post I was not able to find the coaling tower. But I noticed that the roundhouse is still standing. 42°57'55.4"N 77°14'03.9"W Daniel Dovideo: Dennis DeBruler the Roundhouse is still there, I will post a couple pictures of it. [Added to these notes below.] The coal tower is gone. That picture is from the 1970s I believe. |

Daniel Dovideo posted four photos with the comment: "Former Lehigh Valley roundhouse at the Manchester NY yards. There have been several failed efforts to save it and/or repurpose it. Made of poured concrete, it will probably be there until the end of time... interesting how you can still see the turntable bridge like a sunken ship in a harbor."

| Rick Shilling posted 2021 Former Lehigh Valley Railroad Roundhouse, Manchester, New York. Richard Shulby: With the C&EI facility in Villa Grove, IL just having been demolished, that leaves us with 203 standing and 2 additional derelict properties in the US. Out of upwards of 3,100 existing at some time in the past... |
Lehigh Valley Railroad Historical Society added three images.
