Frank Garon General It was so sad to railfan Pittsburgh back in the 1980's. Every year it seemed like another steel mill shut down. I remember going past Duquesne Works one year and it was going full blast, and then the next year it was all cold. Next time I saw it, there was just a big empty field there... Sad to see. Thanks for sharing! 1/11/2010 3:55:55 PM
