Lawrence Industrial Park

Is the Industrial Park off Glenn Street in Lawrence served regularly? If so, any estimate on good times to see anything moving?

It looked like there were 2 customers, right on Glenn Street, with nothing going past Shepard Street.

Looking at the companies from Glenn St., the one on the left is Sekisui Voltek Plastics and the one on the right is Whittemore Perlite. They are served by either LA-1 or LA-3 so youre best bet is late morning to early afternoon. I randomly caught LA-1 up there a few Mondays ago and think they are served at least once a week if not more. Hope that helps?

Thanks for the info, great to know.


If it's LA-1 or LA-3, does that mean it's likely they'll serve Eastman in Peabody afterward? Or are they completely separate LA-1's/LA-3's?

Not unless they head to Somerville afterwards. The switchout up there usually takes some time.

Lawrence Industrial is more or less an elongated attachment to the yard. I would think they could pretty much serve it whenever they want with a light engine move without bundling it in with anything else since they have to go back through the yard anyway when they come off the branch. It wouldn't make any fiscal or operational sense to combine that with a Boston run.

Generally runs up there are a half day trip between switching out the cars, getting up there, switching everything out and coming back. It's done by itself, no other loads/empties are brought on the run.
