What are the NYA's customers on the Central Branch, where are they located, what kinds of cars do they get and how often, on average, does the NYA service the Central? Thanks.

Looking at this line via Google Earth shows a fairly good number of spurs along the branch, but unless cars are spotted on them you can't tell if they're active customers.

There's Amco plastics by 110.

Between Wellwood and Albany there is the siding and off of that are 5 or 6 short spurs. I believe though that only Inter-County and Boening Bros are using the rails.

South of Sunrise is the Building material supply company and they receive all different types of building materials.

South of Albin Ave is the LIRR yard.

This is all I know of right now. Things may change.
