ITHACA, N.Y. — A second General Electric turbine shipment expected to pass through Ithaca on Tuesday has been delayed due to the predicted winter storm.
A massive steam turbine shipment traveling from the General Electric plant in Schenectady to the Scranton, Pennsylvania, area, will not move Tuesday since roads are expected to be difficult to pass during the storm. Plans are pending for Wednesday, according to the Ithaca Police Department.
