PC 9562 on the Abandon - shot 1 of 4 |
Description: |
PC 9562 leads a short train off the elevated main and down the ramp to the Kent St. yards, just crossing Platt St. (visible under the second car). Plymouth Ave. is down the street to the left, out of sight. The Alling & Cory building (blue with white lettering) was once considered for incorporation into the new baseball stadium (Frontier Field), much like the B&O warehouse in Baltimore. The side facing the track (visible behind the first boxcar) was to be just outside of the left field wall. Alas, a mysterious (?) fire gutted the structure and it was subsequently leveled. The three headed signal (barely noticeable above the first brown boxcar) was almost continuously lit as red over red over red. Although Platt St. remains today and this shot can be replicated, the new view will yield only the exterior of the baseball stadium - home plate is somewhere under the ramp. ... and Kent St. itself no longer exists. |

PC 9562 on the Abandon - shot 2 of 4 |
Description: |
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. |

Description: |
Oak St. has been flagged and we're now moving. Scrap yards are behind me on both sides of the line. A few hundred feet more and the track will start its descent down the ramp into the subway. |

PC 9562 on the Abandon - shot 4 of 4 |
Description: |
OK, this is not the Abandon. In this last shot, the train has made its way down into the subway, looping under the Abandon (the black truss bridge in the background). The street viewed here is Lyell Avenue. The old Tent City building and Dewey Avenue are to the left out of sight. The Broad Street intersection is to the right out of sight. The structure in the foreground is what remains of the Lyell Ave. subway station. Barely visible on the other side (look below the front of the red van) is the ramp that permitted trolleys access to the subway from street level. Only the truss bridge remains today. The subway bed has been filled in and (for the most part) shows up as a grassy strip on satellite maps. |

Description: |
PC 9563 is sitting on the former PRR interchange trackage at the end of West Ave. Pfaudler is to the right and behind the train. The K-52-2 and K-52-3 tracks would have been to the immediate left in the photo. They've been pulled and the property is now (or was) a '70s version of a recycling facility. January 1976 photo. |
