However, after the PRR shut down its Rochester Branch following its merger with the New York Central, the name "Genesee Junction" moved west to the neighboring interchange between the West Shore (Penn Central by this point) and the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad.
When CSX took over the ex-CR lines in the Rochester area in 1998, they attempted to maintain this paper barrier.
However, in the Surface Transportation Board decision[1] for the split of Conrail, the LAL was granted trackage rights through the yard to directly interchange with the Rochester Southern and Norfolk Southern.
The only section of the PRR Rochester Branch still in existence today can be found in Genesee Junction.
The remainder of the PRR branch from downtown Rochester into the Southern Tier has become the Genesee Valley Greenway trail.
