NYSW "Local Freight" at PC |
Description: |
The date is an educated guess based on other photos this was found with. CKF was a civil engineer and this picture was taken while he was inspecting/overseeing work on the roof of what I believe was the Mirrer Trucking transloading facility on Mayhill Street in Saddle Brook. GP18 #1802 is leading a short train through Passaic Junction Yard. The train is eastbound in this shot and had another unit running mid-train (see http://knox.rrpicturearchives.net/showPicture.aspx?id=1040808) |

Title: |
NYSW "Yellow Jacket" GP18 |
Description: |
Viewed from the Mirrer Trucking transloading facility next to Passaic Junction Yard, where Suzy-Q GP18 #1804 is coupled mid train on an eastbound local. The building in the background is Sealed Air, the makers of bubble wrap - who hasn't spent hours popping their product? They were/are- a Suzy-Q customer for plastic pellets. You can see the front of this train here -- http://knox.rrpicturearchives.net/showPicture.aspx?id=1040807. |
