LIRR Scale Tracks?

Anyone know the location of ex-LIRR scale track locations/pics/etc.?

There was one in Long Island City west of Yard A somewhere in Arch Street if I remember properly after forty years. It was short and we used to weigh one end of the car at a time...

Arch St. by the Azko salt track.

Good deal, here we go:

Could the white bldg, center, be the old scale house?

Any others out there?

Faint memory of one at one of the legs of the wye at PW, something to do with the bogie project. Could be wrong

Hmmm, map provide nothing

Only one scale on the entire LIRR? Yipes... Nothing in Holban, Fresh Pond, etc??

Steve, I could be wrong but I dont think that building was there before 2007 ESA projects starting? 21-16 Jackson Ave is the old freight headquarters on the right( Blue shack lol). A freight consignee told me years back he would walk in there and ask where his cars were for the team yard( tracks in foreground). He told me like 80 people were in there and no one could give an answer

Agree, after looking at it wrong track config/location...

There was a scale somewhere between yard A and the floats.
Does the Emery maps have it?

The one on the map above?
