The files aren't restricted, however you have to copy and past the full link
into your browser.  The URLs were too long and because of the line break
only a portion of the URL shows as a link.  Rather than clicking on the link
copy the entire URL and paste it in your browser.  You should see the
pictures without any further problems.

>  Harriman - An abandoned railroad depot built 95 years ago on land donated
>by this village's namesake is about to be demolished.
>      A contractor hired by Norfolk Southern, the railroad that owns the
>property, met with Harriman building inspector Ron Walker Tuesday to get a
>demolition permit.  An excavator that will be used to tear down the
>dilapidated Grove Street building is already parked next to it.  Walker
>ordered the railroad to remedy the structure about two months ago, Mayor
>Steve Welle said.
>      Railroad and banking magnate E.H. Harriman donated the land on which
>the station was built in 1911.  The brick-and-stucco building closed in the
>late 1950s or early 1960s and has gradually slid into disrepair.  A few
>years ago, Orange County officials talked with the Town of Monroe about
>giving the building to the town for a history museum once the county bought
>the stretch of unused tracks that the station sits beside.  Harriman was
>also negotiating to buy the property.  At first, Welle said, the railroad
>agreed to sell the land for $125,000 but then wanted to lease it.
