WPCA51 had a long string of tank cars today bound for storage in Tuckahoe.

They shifted IP in Barrington http://www.rrpicturearchives.net/showPi ... id=4897273" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; before heading south through Magnolia by the OSS 'Maggie' tracks

Yes, just a nickname I believe. I think they were officially called the Magnolia Storage Tracks before going OOS.

Some delayed photos due to Railroad Picture Archive's uploader being down.

39G had a nice EMD set consisting of an ex-BN SD60M and a standard cad SD60 on Wednesday during the Nor'easter.
