I dont think Conrail re-routed any tracks when the "Corning bypass" was built..
the new bypass around Corning was built in the early 90's..
the DL&W ROW was already in use long before that..
the original Erie went right through the middle of Corning, south of the River..the current Denison parkway one block south of Market st..
that line was abandoned long before the 90's..
