Another bit of M&E railroad's past is lost to the wrecking ball. The former Channel Lumber warehouse, located along Route 10 in Whippany, has been demolished. Channel was situated near the M&E's Milipidas Branch and was served each weekday. During the 1980s Rickel Lumber acquired Channel Lumber and all warehousing moved to South Plainfield. The structure has been dormant since.
How much you wanna bet that the site will feature a new condo complex??
Those tracks to the old Channel complex were torn out at least 7 years ago!
