The M&E ran another train on the SIRR on Sunday. There is a string of hoppers on the siding next to the CNJ (Raritan Valley) mainline.

The first revenue train ran on the SIRR this morning. Empty plastics hoppers were moved from Bayway, to the siding between South Ave. in Cranford and Amsterdam Ave. in Roselle.

The ROW behind Paparrato Construction and Synray has been marked with surveyor stakes. In a few spots, the rail has been marked with flourescent red/orange paint. Most of the track is buried in mud, but it is still there. All of the vehicles and containers that were parked on the track have been mov...

The M&E crew was working there last week. They removed all of the brush and trees (again) between the GSP and the Lumber Yard.

The former CNJ/RVRR Aldene yard was cleaned up east of the GSP by the the M&E this week.

I was told by an M&E employee that the track in question will be the new siding to Federal Plastics and not an interchange track. I guess we will have to wait and see.

The Railroad Construction machines have begun removing the rail and ties from the Rahway Valley between Route 28 and Michigan Avenue. When I went by late this afternoon, the one machine was parked next to Faitoute Ave. in Kenilworth. It was covered with "Stop The Train" flyers, taped to it...
