Under the guise of an emergency bridge repair, without CMRR consent Ulster County removed 540 feet of track, ties, and even the subgrade pushing it into the creek to make a ramp (to the right). Removal of the subgrade will allow the fill to wash into the creek at the next rain. This is at MP 36.77 at Big Indian. The DURR had expressed interest in restoring this section of the line, but were turned down by the County.
