| The train has stopped and one of the crew (Gino Casciani) is walking up to flag the Oak St. crossing. No lights, gates or even crossbucks here. Technically, we're probably off the Abandon, which is rising on the left to go over Oak Street and the canal (subway bed). Those bridges and Kleen Brite are off to the left out of view. Behind me are numerous scrap yards and the canal (subway bed). I'm assuming the scrap yards used the services of the canal at one time as the yards lined the canal all over the city. Heading to the right down Oak. St. took you towards Kodak Office and downtown. Everything in the photo is gone today and this shot cannot be replicated as the entire site sits under the stupid soccer stadium. |
