In the last two weeks the St.James siding has received a total of three carloads of steel. One car during the first week of June and then two cars on Friday. This customer also received a car back around December.

Jayjay,

I took an early lunch and went to St.James around 11:30am. Thought you might turn at Stony Brook and make a quick move. I wound up going to 7-eleven. The return photo came out blurry. I was going to video it and then I deceded to take a photo at the last moment. I usually watch the westbound signal at Post and if it stays blocked I keep an eye out for the eastbound freight. My boss is a big model railroader so that's why you might see both of us outside when you go by.

Two more cars of steel beams were delivered this week. One on Tuesday and another one on Wed. There were a total of 5 cars delivered during the month of June. Anybody know if this will continue in the months to come.

Went past the St.James team track yesterday and noticed that another carload of steel was delivered along with two gondolas that contained small bundels of steel. Anybody know when these cars were delivered? It must have been at night or weekend since I see the weekday RS-30 from where I work and these cars were not in any of the consists. Thanks...
