If you're familar with the area, there used to be a creamery trackside to the Owego, NY yard. Over the past couple years there has been various amounts of construction work behind it; now it isn't there.

I don't know the date it was removed- was there back in May and it was more or less intact.

Is this the creamery that was on the Maybrook line ?

Hey guys,
I was there at the end of May, videotaping. Was this near the "Mini" grade crossing for pedestrians?

about three hundred feet to the west.

Ok- so it took me nearly 1/2 of a year to find a pic of the structure in question....

I was rambling through the twenty odd CD-Roms of digital picture archieves for the Trainorders.com contest and found this...finally...

The back of the structure was gutted well before this picture was taken, but I wish I could've gotten a bit better quality front-on shot.
