| Title: |
Pennsys last November |
| Description: |
Symbol freight MD-16 (Edge Moor-Greenville) with an unusual number of GG-1s starts onto the High Line passing Arsenal Block and Interlocking Station on a rather dismal morning. This was your view from the east window of the block station, with the passenger tracks on the other side of the tower. An excellent place to see a lot of traffic pass by and make a wage simultaneously. |
