Please do not call or ask the NYGL when 436 is going to move. These things get back to me.

If NYGL can create competition by transloading scrap from trains into containers, and if container rates are low enough, there could be room for some competition.This concept seems a bit inefficent to me - Passiac isn't all that close to Port Newark, 21 sort of peters out as a divided highway by the south end of the Newark branch (whole 'nother thread), then these container trucks get to deal w/ the lovely Downtown Newark local traffic, or they could deviate out of their direct way south by heading South on 21, East on 3, and South on the Turnpike.
