When I was a kid in Elmira Heights, the railroad lines through town were: Erie, DL&W (Delaware, Lacawanna & Western or, as some dubbed it the Delay, Linger & Wait) and Lehigh Valley. I think the Pennsylvania RR used the Erie tracks and there may have been some New York Central trains coming through on one of the tracks. NCRR might possibly have meant New York Central.
