Orchard Park with motor car 1002.
Madison Kirkman: That doesn't look like a McKeen Car to me. Did the B.R.&P. have other Motor Cars?
The Buffalo Rochester and Pittsburgh Railway Company: Madison Kirkman it was a General Electric car.

The Buffalo Rochester and Pittsburgh Railway Company posted three photos with the comment: "The old heart shaped station platform like this one at Orchard Park circa 1915, is hooked up and working! It has a special large teardrop LED bulb that lights everything up nicely!"

It looks like the town still has rail service by the Buffalo and Pittsburgh Railroad.
