Switching
Title:  Switching
Description:  ICG GP30 2272 and GP10 8237 were switching the northward Shore Line Branch local in front of the unused Covington depot. A few years later, the depot was renovated as a restaurant; but the railroad here was abandoned in 1991. The house track is still in place on the left, while siding on the right served the Alexius Brothers Hardware Store and Lumber Yard.
