Column & a Half in fact, with John Krattinger handing out thanks to 4 other people for the info.
Starts off with "Business is booming on the NY & A Railway due to high oil prices. Single Car shipments have increased from companies that normally do not ship from rail." and goes on from there.
Talks about NY CH interchanges, CSX problems, Capacity Constraints!, new switch on the Central Branch, and Jamaica Ash in Westbury (whatever happened to that?), plus various Motive Power statuses which we more or less have covered on this forum over the past few months.
Also an 'operating schedule' for ... 10 trains (times and service areas).
My favorite line - "The supplier that previously made ASC equipment for the LIRR no longer stocks or manufactures it"... Well, I guess they better get cracking on finding another (custom) supplier then, shouldn't they?
