Down by the water plant |
| Description: |
This was down a side road off NY17C. There was a water supply plant there, but the road was often gated. It was open this day, and I took the opportunity to get BUME rolling through the pair of signals there. |

View from the bridge |
| Description: |
One of the good things about the Cut Off was the grade separation. There were no crossings from Clarks Summit to Halstead. There were a number of overhead bridges, such as this one on PA 706 just south of New Milford, which provided good vantage points for photos. PYRP rolls under behind a we-ain't-mad-at-nobody consist on a gloomy Sunday. |
