ABOVE: Canadian Pacific 5698 and 5672 lead train No. 417 under the Third Avenue Bridge in The Bronx on September 2, 2005. This photo- graphic vantage point is easily accessed from a public walkway off 135th Street in Manhattan.


RIGHT: The shadowy outline of the Empire State Building projects from the Manhattan skyline as CP No. 5677 leads its train off the Oak Point Link and onto Metro-North’s Hudson Line at Control Point 8 in the High Bridge section of The Bronx. On this hot and muggy evening, two ex-Long Island Rail Road M-1’s headed to scrap can be found deep in the consist of freight on August 27, 2005. The Metro-North yard is part of a passenger train cleaning facility.
