Melrose Junction         
Old freight spur to Port Morris and Amtrak's Hell Gate Line. Note absence of third rail. A partially derailed freight car traversing the crossovers to reach this spur in the late hours pulled out all four mainline third rails here one time, wreaking havoc for the commuter trains the next morning.
