In 1963 I was an electrician on the New York Central RR.
I worked there until long distance passenger and pullman
car service became sporadic, and I was laid off. I'm trying
to recall some memories from my time there for a
memoir. I've looked on Google maps, but can't seem
to pinpoint the location of the Mott Haven yard in the
Bronx. I'd appreciate any info on the streets bordering
the old yard, or an aerial view picture. I remember that on a
relatively quiet day and if the wind was right we could
hear the cheering from Yankee Stadium.
Appreciate any feedback,
