Fred Stuckmann General I always wonder how many folks earned a payday in places like this. Great shot. 12/8/2012 12:06:29 PM
Neil Barratt General I've added a photo to this album showing the union work force at a gathering outside the Oneonta shops, with at least a hundred members in attendance. 12/18/2012 5:45:22 PM
