This U.S. Coast & Geodetic survey benchmark (designated L 387) is located along the old Baltimore and Ohio Railroad line (track and ties removed). The mark is set in the top of the NE abutment of the railroad bridge that passes over Cattaraugus Creek.

The mark is in good shape, and is set flush with the top of the abutment. The mark is stamped with the date: 1967.
