    Cane sugar is produced in a 2-step mill process. Sugar Cane goes through the first mill step within 48 hours of cutting do to it rapidly losing its sugar content. This step is where you get molasses, turbinado sugar, and Brown sugar. This is usually done near the sugar cane farms. After this, the sugar goes through the second milling process that removes the last if the molasses. This produces the white sugar crystals. The 1st milling and the 2nd milling don't have to happen together. Often what happens is the first milling is done near the farms and the second milling near the target market. That Domino sugar mill is the latter.

    They are paranoid about the speed restriction at the curve before Spuyten Duyvil because that's where the Poughkeepsie train derailed the year prior. the NTSB made them place the speed restriction further back so as to give engineers more time to reduce speed before the 30 mile an hour curve. that Poughkeepsie train entered that particular curve before that station at 82 miles per hour. I'm actually glad to see trains going through there a bit slow because right after that curve where the accident happened there's another tight one right after the station. if an accident were to happen there there would be nowhere for that train to roll. It would roll right into the wall which would make the damage injuries and loss of life 10 times worse. at least where that accident happened there was grass and brush to lessen the blow even though it came darn close to the river. bless the person who came up with speed restrictions.

      Soon after they did the poor man’s version of PTC. Southbound trains experience a permanent cab signal drop a mile or so away even though there’s no diverging switch or train ahead. Amtrak did this in a number of NEC locations decades earlier though they didn’t do it for northbound at the Frankford Junction curve until the 2015 accident.

    Thanks! Got my first look at Gotham in '65 from these rails aboard NYC's #16 from Ohio to GCT. Had a beautiful sunrise ride down from Albany back then, too. This has to be one of America's most scenic rail routes, right up there with the Coast Starlight.

      superROTV Metro north operates out of Grand Central Terminal and Heads Up the Hudson River on the Hudson Line. On the Harlem Line, It goes through the East Harlem/East Bronx and to wassaic. The New Haven line operates Into Connecticut along Amtrak’s Northeast Corridor. The Long Island Rail Road operates out of Pennsylvania Station(future grand central) and goes under the east river to serve Queens, Brooklyn, Nassau And Suffolk country. Amtrak goes all over New York State Out of Penn. All of the rails in New York(including the subway via the south Brooklyn railway) Are connected(literally)
