June 1, 1999 ushered in a new era for railroading in the Northeast as Norfolk Southern and CSX carved up Conrail. The New York Metropolitan Area suddenly  found itself in the middle of the action as dramatic changes swept the area.

Follow Green Frog photographer Richard Kugel as he documents action around New York City in the months prior to the Conrail split and the weeks that followed. We visit every major rail line radiating out of New York. Besides Conrail, Norfolk Southern and CSX, you'll see the New York Susquehanna and Western, Amtrak, New Jersey Transit, Metro North and Long Island Railroad.
