Another cut of boxcars by the NYPD garage on Metropolitan Ave., next to the fence, today. Yard on Maspeth Ave. had a cut of empty center beam flatcars. Didn't see any hoppers to the west.

Aggregate cars probably went out on P&W's friday run.

There were quite a few boxes back there (3-5) - and there's a new fence over the tracks by metro ave - which makes me suspect it's beer...
Here's one of the fences that crosses the RoW, one of many that cross the Bushwick branch.
