For the railroad buffs. On a bike ride I spotted this abandoned diesel
locomotive, one of many old engines and railcars at the Harmon/Croton Yards.
This facility is the major repair center for Amtrak's Metro division. If
some rolling stock is uneconomical to fix, it is pushed to a siding and
waits until eternity or some scrap metal dealer bids on it - whichever comes
first.
