Busy Little Town..

Due to its geographic location the Village of Altamont is a busy little place. People who live in the Hilltowns and who drive each day to Albany, Schenectady or other Towns and Cities in the Capital District depend on the businesses in this little town. The Crossing at Main Street sees both a lot of Vehicular and pedestrian traffic. Also people who live in the village cross over the Albany Main in between neighbor's yards and even use the ROW as an easy access into the heart of the Village. SMS's Crews who pass through here daily have to be very vigilant as can been seen in this Image as A-Team member Jeremy can been seen looking out his window checking for people or obstructions so he can alert his fellow A-Team Member Bill who can be seen looking ahead. Also to be noted is the yellow MOW machine on the left side siting on the siding up by the station. SMS's MOW Division has been busy since late March working on the Albany Main and at the park. Two weeks ago they began replacing ties from the entrance of the park and are slowly working there way up to Delanson replacing ties that are no longer any good.
