Double Stacks, Fonda, New York, USA, 2009


Fonda is one of the last towns on the Mohawk River westbound before Lock 17, and the start of the Barge Canal. Fonda is on the north bank of the Mohawk, whereas Fultonville is on the south bank, and slightly to the west, and is the official location, from what I can gather, of Lock 17. Fonda is also the home of Fonda Speedway, a dirt car racing track on the Mohawk River at the small fairgrounds there (although it's virtually invisible from the road, being hidden by a high wooden fence). I took this shot as a second best of this double-stack train, however, not thinking of the canal or the speedway. I had meant to get the locomotives, but my camera jammed, leaving me to photograph these very North American double stacks. In most other parts of the world, trains can't carry sea containers two-high, as the loading gauges in most countries outside the U.S., Canada, and Mexico don't allow it.
