The article is brimming with optimism about many potential rail customers in this sparsely populated area, but looking back today, it is clear that Buckland's purchase of the railroad was basically just a vehicle for his National Slag Company operations. His company started a large slag crushing operation at Durham Furnace with plans to ship the crushed slag by rail. And I believe he also owned the sand & gravel operation in Riegelsville which started operations not long after he acquired the railroad, also shipping by rail. So by this time, the Q&B (renamed Quakertown & Bethlehem under Buckland) was basically his slag and gravel company's railroad, I'd be very surprised if large quantities of anything else were hauled by rail during his ownership. After all of the slag piles were gone, the Riegelsville operations started using dump trucks and that was the end for this railroad.
