Another fire broke out yesterday at the former D&H Colonie shops north of Alabny. The complex has been unused for 20 years and has a multiple fires in that time. Yesterday's fire greatly damaged, probably mortally, the biggest building, the former 4-story erecting shop. It may be demolished within the next week or two.

Property was never owned by CPR, still owned by Guilford Transporation Industries.

The NRHS Mohawk & Hudson Chapter used to stored various pieces of rolling stock inside until being evicted.

A full enviornmental study has never been conducted on the site but I'm sure it ain't pretty.
