Eastern Railroad Discussion > Ex-CR EMD Leader Along the HudsonDate: 03/22/20 19:49 Ex-CR EMD Leader Along the Hudson Author: RiverLineProductions CSX Q434 heads north in Milton, NY, at QR-68 on the CSX River Subdivision. Always nice to see an ex-CR SD40-2 leading a road train!

Date: 03/23/20 06:15 Re: Ex-CR EMD Leader Along the Hudson Author: march_hare I love the scrollwork on the station gable end. Not sure if everybody can read it a this resolution, but it says "Freight" and underneath it NYWS&B, Both in fancy, fancy script.
That was a standard feature of West Shore stations. Not very many examples are still around, and still readable.

When I last saw the Saugerties freight station during October 2017, a few of the more-complicated cutouts in the wood had a piece missing. The station scrollwork in photo #1 appears fully intact, or at least restored to a similar state. Date: 03/23/20 16:50 Re: Ex-CR EMD Leader Along the Hudson Author: Ray_Murphy anthracite Wrote:
