Highbridge Yard and Highbridge Tower |
| Description: |
1022 hrs-Southbound B749 heads along a stretch of track that Metro North Railroad built for freight trains to connect to The Oakpoint Link about 500 feet south of this location. Freights access the track that this train is on, at CP 8, where before Highbridge Yard was rebuilt, trains accessed The Hudson Line at CP 7, which no longer exists. There was also a diamond on which freights crossed a yard track in Highbridge, which no longer exists. It was the only known "Diamond" within New York City Limits. (Canon Rebel Digital) |

The NEW Yonkers Waterfront |
| Description: |
At 0942 HRS, CSX B749-18, based at Croton West Yard, NY, has their normal cars on the head pin, and Q701-17's power and train as it heads south through The Yonkers RR Station on Metro North Railroad. The NEW Yonkers Waterfront includes a Revitalized train station and pier ; new streets built over the Hudson, apartments, banks, top notch restaurants The Pierview (Shameless PLUG), and Zuppa, and a new parking garage, from which this photo was taken. Within view Left to Right is Alpine, NJ in The Palisades, The North Yonkers Waste Water Treatment plant lighthouse, MTA Bus Yonkers Depot, The remnants of The New York Central YONKERS YARD, The Former Glenwood Power Plant, and if you look hard enough The Tappan Zee Bridge 10 miles to the north. The park adjacent to the station for many years was the Originating Bus station for many of The Yonkers bus routes served by The Bee Line System. Growing up in Yonkers, it is great to see what was envisioned for many years finally happened. CSX Transportation since it's joint purchase of Conrail in 1999 has operated Freight Train service over The Metro North Railroad Hudson Line. Metro North Railroad was created in 1983, and Conrail ceased passenger operations over The Hudson Line. http://www.csxt.com http://www.mnr.org |
