Yoshi, If you want to see what Spuyten Duyvil looks like you can go to my web site www.skyandtrains.com go to Trains of the Hudson, Spuyten Duyvil Chapter. That was my start, i'm working my way slowly up thru all stations and stops taking pics. I hope to get to Canada by next year. As for your trip to the city, if it's a nice day hop on the Circle Line. You can see photos of it in my Spuyten Duyvil site. The Circle line is a large fleet of basicly the same boat and it circles manhattan Island. It goes up the east river and you'll see Yankee Stadium, in front and over a little is a train yard. The trachs lead all the way up the banks to spuyten Duyvil where the boat has to wait for a swing bridge that used to be NYCentral freight but is now Amtrack passenger. After it goes thru the bridge it mahes a left turn onto the Hudson River following the train tracks and West Side highway under the George Washington Bridge and docks again. It's a couple of hours long and gives you a nice look at the island and the trains that ride the banks. We have lived here all our lives and when we go to the hobby shops in times square my wife hangs out the car window getting pics for our website. If you have any questions I can help you with contact me off the list at bionicworm1@hotmail.com and i'll give you my phone #.
