From the Yahoo! Groups "DandH" List: I just back from the employee meeting in Saratoga.......... I'll make this short and sweet, more details will be out in the coming months...... CP has given NS haulage rights north of Saratoga, this will require up to two more pool crews. All current NS...

From the DandH Yahoo Groups List: Looks as if the "expansion " of Bluff Point Yard is finally underway. All this week a contractor and some D&H/CP M of W folks have been opening up the long unused road which once led to the former D&H tree nursery which was located on the west side...

I thought the Delaware & Ulster Rail Ride folks owned this engine.

If you are referring to the railroad bridge over the Saranac River there, it is privately owned by an adjacent property owner. Gets highly torked catching tresspassers on the bridge. Best to ask for permission at house/residence. Any other bridge I have no knowledge of.

It's listed on their website. I requested a picture of it from them. Hopefully soon................ It should, possibly, make up for the lack of availability of the undecorated fluted side version. I ordered five at Christmastime assuming they would be available as such. Fortunately, my local hobby ...

Political Possibilities

Well, I guess we've all seen how Republicans and Conservatives in general have completely abandoned high speed rail in this country. They are taking their cues from the Bush administration's opposition to Amtrak and Florida Gov Jeb Bush's opposition to HSR in that state. It's no wonder activity on t...

>>Get off the train & get a cab to the dock and then there is the matter of connecting to the ferry!<<


'Tain't THAT fer a walk in nice weather. Besides, seems like a bus shuttle from the depot to the ferry wouldn't be too unreasonable a service to provide.

This has my Amtrak train scheduling cogs turning. Seeing as the Maple Leaf is a NYP <> Toronto train, does this thing have the potential to severely affect its patronage to Toronto beyond Buffalo-Niagara? From my examinations of the Amtrak's schedule from NYP to Toronto, using the ferry has the pote...

CP`s selling of it`s D&H?

With the unions screaming bloody murder about being busted by leasing to a shortline, the CN thing AND Sen. Charles Schumer getting involved politically, D&H will continue to see CP Action Red for the foreseeable future. :wink:
