Selkirk Rail Yards Albany NNY

Anyone on this forum know if the closed to auto traffic bridge over or near the yard is still open for pedestrian use? I might want to take a ride up there to see the rail yard but it is quite a distance from S.E. CT so I am trying to learn as much about the place as I can.

Railyard Crane in Westerly RI

We spotted this in Westerly RI today on our way home from a lobster anniversary dinner in Point Judith RI. To make the point our anniversary (47th) NOT the lobster's! This crane is behind the RR station and looks in need of a good home! http://neme-s.org/Westerly_RI_August_2013/DSC04434.jpg http://n...

Re: cabin fever 2013

I plan to be there. Keep an eye out for a guy scooting along on a rolling stool taking photos of everything in sight!

Mineral Spirits is also a good choice for cutting aluminum.
