That is great news! There are four rail fans (me included) that work at Ditschman Ford. We can't wait to see her pass by Johanna Farms Road!

You guys would have been impressed with the trains pulling out of Baer in the 90's when the Bel Del was running "dirt trains" for a remediation project in north Jersey. If I remember correctly, the bel del would shove a string of 25-50 gons south from pburg to Baer, two geeps on the north ...

Geez, must've been really crowded (and busy) in Ringoes yard, just saw 1202 heading north with 7 or 8 empty flats.

Just read on FB that trains on the Black River were cancelled today because a bridge was damaged.

Anyone know which bridge? My guess is Dayton Road, seems like at least once a year someone tries to stuff a 10 ft high truck through a 9ft 8" bridge....

Dude, did you overdose on RedBull when you wrote the above post?

Holy crap.

Another nice consist heading South (LV112 leading). There are four railfans (including me) at the Ford/Lincoln/Nissan dealership here, so this added some excitement to an otherwise slow day....

Wow, nice consist seen passing Johanna Farms Road heading North this morning. 1202 pulling three empty bulkhead flats, LV112, Pennsy gon and flatcar, numerous cabeese, the combine, and Erie 436. Hopefully someone's getting some pics today!

Just read on NJ.com that their are two un-named companies interested in the Bemis property.

Hopefully whoever buys will want to get their material by rail.

Just saw her heading North past Johanna Farms Road, pulling a caboose!

Whoa! Did my eyes and ears deceive me, or did I just see LV 112 heading north past Johanna Farms Road??

Awesome!

I'd rather see an invasion of BDRV/BRW Geeps/SW's and maybe even a SD9

I remember back when we put the Baer switch in, I was told the quarry is loaded with that river rock, which is easy to extract from the ground (no blasting required!).

Let's hope they get a big contract with the folks in Florida!

I saw a couple of recent photos of BRW 752 venturing up to Hudson Yard in P'Burg. Anyone know what she brought back to the Bel Del? Freight? Coaches? Freight. Baer is shipping a few cars of stone to a place in Florida That's great! I've always thought that if Baer upgraded their processing equipmen...

I was saddened to read about the passing of long time BRW volunteer John Konn.

Does anyone know how many years he was with the railroad?

I didn't know him too well, but he always seemed like a great guy, and a very dedicated volunteer.
