Location/orientation

[edit]

Do you happen to have a references on the move? The statue as now placed, I believe, is not from the 1908 move, but was actually from the mids 1980s to the awkward orientation, when they "renovated" the plaza. Earlier it stood facing up Hudson Place. Maybe the flower lady in the station knows exactly?

Plaque inscription

[edit]

Does the inscription on the plaque really read "... OF THE DELAWARE, LACKAWANA & ..."? Lackawanna is misspelled, either on the plaque or in the Wikipedia article. I'd be surprised that the plaque had a misspelling for all these years.--Mmathu (talk) 05:51, 24 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
