There doesn't seem to be any. What happened to it?

Only one person was in the station when the ceiling fell in about 3:15 p.m., the newspaper reports, and was not injured. The station has been closed for inspection. Amtrak officials told the paper that service to the station has been suspended through at least July 10, and are suggesting passengers use the Utica, N.Y., station, 14 miles away.
Izzo said she aimed to have the station reopened to the public by Christmas -- so travelers can be dropped right in Rome, instead of having to figure out how to get from Utica to Rome -- so opening a week early is a win in her book.
The city was awarded a $250,000 grant that state Sen. Joseph Griffo secured from the Dormitory Authority of the State of New York, which paid for the temporary fix and will pay for a portion of the permanent fix, as well.
The second phase of the repairs will be to make permanent repairs to the walkway, which will also be at least partly covered by the rest of the grant Griffo secured. Izzo said the city will have to work with CSX because the tracks are over part of the walkway.
