Not as bad as it looks |
Description: |
The 751 train starts up Belden hill from Bevier St, the rear of the train still in the yard. It looks like a hellacious climb-and it is at times-but here, because the new connection to the NYSW, seen below, slopes down, the grade looks worse than it really is. It still aint easy!! |
