Price Chopper (Golub Corp.) just put up a big frozen foods distribution building right next to the tracks of the South Schenectady yard. Does anyone know if Price Chopper will actually be receiving frozen products by the trainload here?

Havent heard anything about Golub, but just read about a produce distribution center going in and they will receive all goods by rail and transfered to trucks for shipment through out NYS. They have no connection to the Golub corp.

There was an article in the Albany paper a couple of weeks back, confirming that the unloading facility will be at the former military depot in Schenectady. Previous reports had put the terminal in Albany, which raised some speculation as to where it would be located.

The version I saw did not specify Price Chopper (Golub Corp) facility, but with a new building erected quickly on exactly the site that the paper talked about, it seems likely that's the spot.
