I am in Fonda NY home of a major truck stop and a Minor Crew change point on the csx mainline. <br />Did some reserch at the court house today on the Fonda Jamestown and Gloversville Railroad. There are some boxcars still left down here and I was told that Delwere Ostego still ownes them. There is big Wall Mart Distrubution Center here and I suggested that the county use the FJ&G railroad again. Wall Mart had big 53 foot trailers here pounded the hell out of this little town. <br />Fonda NY is the Home of Henry Fondas Family and nearby Amsterdam is the Home of Kirk Douglas...Who by the way mentioned in his book Ragmans Son that when he was 17 he had a torrid Affair with his Art Teacher....Which the local towns people are not to happy about.[:0]. Amsterdan has built a Canalside park near there shopping mall downtown and the bridge linking it has great views of the New York Central Mainline...over and out from the Liabrary here..
