Just remembered some other modelling references for Mr. Kovac. A modeller by the name of Ron Parisi built a beautiful diorama featured in RMC and before that in either Model Railroading or Railmodel Journal. It was of the elevated portion and included a meat packing plant. Back about 1963 Paul Borthwick wrote an article for MR "A trackplan in spite of the devil" which had some vintage photos (including some pre-WW2 showing the line when it was electrified). <br />My personal recollection of the line was uptown in a more bucolic setting, between Inwood Hill Park and the baseball fields along the Hudson River between Dyckman Street (200th) and the Spuyten Duyvil swingbridge.
