| Title: |
Big bridge |
| Description: |
I had always wanted to get a train here ever since I first saw this bridge in 1973. It took me a few years to get here, largely due to youth and lack of resources. By then, the EL power was all gone, but I did get RDCs and U34s there, though by then they were NJ Transit. Still a good spot, even today. Thats NY 59 in the foreground. |

| Title: |
Bare ruined choirs |
| Description: |
The shuttle from Suffern stops at the once grand Erie station that has fallen on bad times. Not quite ten years after EL left, it is in disrepair, windows missing or covered with plywood and bricks falling out, holes in the roof. Fate will favor the station, and it will undergo a renovation that will restore its one time elegance. |
