Fire under Harlem River R.R. bridge

[guitarman314]

 Watching this on TV and it looks like the fire is not easy to get to because it's under the Mahattan tower. Two Marine units (4 & 6) have been dispatched.

Why am I not surprised Metro North didn't want to stop train traffic?? Just like the Transit Authority, it's like pulling teeth.
