A cinque mesi dal terremoto in Abruzzo c'e' molta gente che non ha ancora una casa e neanche la speranza di averne una prima che sopraggiunga il rigido inverno aquilano.

Five months after the earthquake in the Abruzzo region (Italy) which killed over 300 people, injured 1600 people and left with no house 65.000 people, there are still a lot people which do not have an accomodation (house) and neither a hope to have one before the cold Abruzzo winter (the region struck by the earthquake is one of the coldest in Italy). Prime minister Berlusconi preferred to favour the construction of new houses outside the towns which will house only 15.000 instead of the reconstruction of old buildings. There is no certainty on when these new houses will be completed. To do so 30.000 people have been forced to live in camps inside tends suffering the hot summer months for 5 months. Up to now the new houses have not been completed yet, the reconstruction of buildings has not even started and campsites have been started to be dismantled because of the approaching winter. Some people will be relocated in close hotels (especially the one with childrens) but most of them will be relocated far from their native land. People wants to reconstruct their land but the government will not let them do just because Berlusconi want to show off its supposedly great skills in facing the emergency just like in the occasion of the G8 summit (btw yesterday he proclaimed himself the best prime minister Italy ever had in 150 years). Of course since the 90% of media in Italy is controlled by Berlusconi people in Italy will never know anything about this reality. They see only what the government want them to see. Fortunately there are journals (the same journals heavily criticized in these days by Berlusconi) which from time to time update people about this situation. However only a few minority of people have idea of what it is going on.

A CSX local crosses westbound over the Genesee River's High Falls in the City of Rochester. This was actually my first visit to the falls...and after a very long wait I was eventually treated to three CSX westbounds. None of the other trains would have CSX power, or a caboose for that matter! If only the geeps were still wearing Conrail blue...

dal finire degli anni 70 con l'interramento del binario e la costruzione della vicina Stazione Notarbartolo perse la sua funzione e fu convertita in scalo merci. Recentemente ha perso anche tale ruolo e ad oggi è totalmente abbandonata.
