(Satellite)

Roger Smith posted four photos with the comment: "Cherry Creek, NY along the Erie, 48 miles south of Buffalo."

In Roger's second photo, I saw a logo for NY&LE. That railroad offers tourist train rides.

I thought 6764 looked like an Alco diesel. This webpage confirmed that.

"Alcos in a Winter Wonderland. With plenty of snow for the occasion, New York & Lake Erie's beautiful pair of MLW cab units, FPA-4 6764 and FPA-2u 6758, approach the Jolls Road crossing in Dayton with the last of three holiday trains they were running on that day."

This map accurately marks the location of the depot.
