When we traveled on the Lake Shore Limited, last month, we reached Schenectady, and something came to mind.
I remembered several years ago, a building located by the tracks in Albany, was so bad that pieces of it started falling right by the tracks.
If it was just freight, I am sure they would have been worried, but not as much as the concern for the Amtrak trains, loaded with hundreds of passengers, that pass by daily.
The situation forced the cancelation of trains for several days, until they could shore up the crumbling facade.
As I kept an eye out for this building, it was so easy to see it.
It is a mess, and they did hang netting along the two walls that face the tracks.
I was surprised that the building still existed, at all.
Note: the bridge on the far right, is where the train crosses The Hudson River.
