steel sun

the same rails as BrianSouth's "XI"


Brooklyn USA
Shot the same afternoon.
We went and saw The Damned that night.
Good thing we weren't shooting the next day.
We had sore brains.

kinda reminds me of a sun rising over a hill

"At one time, a small railroad operated along the streets of DUMBO. This railroad was named the Jay Street Connecting Railroad, aptly named for one of the thoroughfares in the neighborhood. The Jay Street Connecting Railroad and the railroad's various terminals served industry and factories in the area. Tug boats and carfloats were utilized to bring boxcars to the Jay Street terminals. Once the boxcars were offloaded from the carfloats on to the rails, small diesel trains would pull the boxcars to the various factories along the railroad's right-of-way. Since the railroad only served the DUMBO area, trucks and other vehicles were brought in to make shipments from the factories to the goods intended destination. The Jay Street Connecting Railroad ceased operations in 1958, as trucks increasingly became the dominant form of shipping transportation in the New York City area."
