Actually, I believe Buffalo had 25 cycle service a little later than
that because it continued to be generated at the Adam Beck power station
on the Canadian side of the Niagara River for a few more years and
supplied customers on both sides of the river. A friend's workplace was
replacing its power feeds in the early 2000s and they were installing
drops and meters and etc. for both 60 Hz and 25 Hz services as they had
equipment that used both and they were still getting 25 Hz off the line
from Canada. It was a few years after that when it was announced that
they were discontinuing 25 Hz service from the Beck station.
