Video offers clue in search
Cameras spot woman driving on train tracks on Saturday evening

Surveillance video from Saturday night shows a car belonging to Beverly A. Trombley driving on the railroad tracks behind the West Albany Pocket Park a short time before she vanished.
According to video reviewed by sheriff ’s deputies, the car passes one camera around 8:30 p.m. and then returns, headed in the other direction several minutes later. The video does not show who was driving the car but deputies expected to get access to more camera recordings on Wednesday, Sheriff Craig Apple said.
It ’s unclear exactly where the car entered the tracks or why Trombley might have been on them, Apple said.
The empty car was found near the tracks early Sunday morning. There was no sign of Trombley and deputies have had a hard time piecing together what might have happened.
“We’ve had no tips, nothing,” Apple said. “We’re trying to see if she might still be in that area.”
Trombley vanished hours before a powerful storm swept through the area, dropping two feet of snow. The heav y snow was complicating the search.
On Wednesday, sheriff ’s deputies used a drone with a thermal imaging system and a police dog to search for her near the West Albany Pocket Park on Braintree Street.
Trombley was first reported missing in Massachusetts where her family was moving at the time she disappeared. Trombley has not lived in Colonie and it is unclear why she might have gone there. She previously lived in
William Demarco was acquitted of the murder of Frank Buckett in June in Saratoga Springs’ Congress Park, a case that grabbed the city ’s attention for months, especially because of the possibility of it being due to a love triangle involving Buckett ’s wife. The jury deliberated for seven hours before concluding Demarco acted in self-defense after being confronted by Buckett. But just 12 hours later he was arrested for carrying a concealed weapon. He had no weapon on him at the time of arrest, but was with a former police force member who was acting as his armed bodyguard. Buckett ’s father, incensed at the verdict, had threatened to shoot Demarco and was ejected from the courtroom.

The cost of developing the Albany Pine Bush sanitary landfill had increased almost five-fold to $240,000, said Mayor Corning. He told newsmen the city had little idea of the cost of turning the “wilderness” into a landfill when it appropriated $55,600 for the job in May. The Common Council amended the bond issue at its meeting to raise the amount. The mayor said the city had discovered it would cost more to provide roadways, electricity, water lines, fencing and wells for the 50-acre tract located just north of the State Thruway and west of Rapp Road. He said the landfill, open since August but still not completed, should have a 5- to 10-year life, possibly longer if new compacting methods were perfected. The larger appropriation ought to cover the entire cost of development, Corning said.
