Many of the elements of this scene, taken 27 years prior to this being posted, are now gone. The sempahore-gone. Track 2-gone. The bridge I'm standing on-gone. The power, an SD 26 and an SD 39-gone. NY 70 to the left of the tracks is still there; the hills are timeless. The Sea Land stacks of this SLN 5 now travel via another route; Sea Land itself was sold to Maersk, so theyre gone too. And its been nearly 40 years since EL last ran a train here, at MP 352 near Dalton. |
