Omega and Royal are different companies. Omega received boxcars for either loading or unloading (I forget which) of tomato products for distribution.

There maybe a serious plunge in traffic on the Totowa Industrial soon. Omega Warehouse, the largest customer on the TIS is moving to Jersey City. One of the two buildings is sold, second one is on the way out as well.

This year's TH&S calender was shoddily done and contains several date errors. One of the months has the 1802 and another engine, the date claims to be 1882. Any date listed in the calender is highly suspect.

3 Active customers. Tilcon, Berr (or Burr) Plastics and a customer that receives box cars of bricks at the old transload yard. Service can be any weekday almost exclusively late at night.

If I had to guess, due to the date of October 17th, it may have had something to do with the 4th anniversary of the Erie-Lackawanna. It may just as well be purely coincidental.

Yes.. It was a fan trip that originated in Hoboken, ran up the old Erie Main swung onto the NYS&W at Hawthorne Junction, then ran to SJ swung south onto the L&HR and returned to the EL at Andover junction. The date of the trip was October 17th, 1964. Two pictures of this trip, one at Butler,...
