Hey Steve,


To me, it looks like Holban Yard (looking towards St. Albans)


- No 3rd Rail
- Variety of Freight Equipment
- Very tight clearance in between tracks
- Light fixtures on the right for the Holban Yard Parking Lot?

That was taken from the LIST fan trips. One of the last 2 ran with the legacy equipment.
I believe we had a lunch brake in Holban which is where this was photographed.
This would have been after we returned the hacks to Holban and before we went to BK.

Anyone got a better pic of that tank car? It’s painted red now.

They were modified after the big fire in '95, and then IIRC they went to Metro-North to become part of their "Water Works" fleet, sometime not too long after 1999.
