I can't recall if there's a photo of that in the "Atlantic City Railroad" book...check with your local library for a copy of that book if you don't own it. I think there may be a photo in there...

As for the siding, where exactly was it located? Milmay? I'll try to find out more if you can get a little more detailed information as to it's location...

Thanks,
Mike DiMunno

Thank you for replying Mike,the siding was next to the steel factory where the current siding for Beaslys point coal cars are parked only this siding crossed tuckaho rd Milmay and went back into the woods to a sawmill near McDonald ave,before the steel factory was built. Two older men told me about it,so im guessing 1940s to 1970s.Thanks
