R&DB, thanks for the info.
Being a map-o-holic, I love looking at old and current maps.
I often wonder why PRR didn't keep that once-huge yard encased in the wide curve west of South Amboy instead of Brown's. The big curved yard was loaded with coal gons and hoppers when South Amboy had that coal terminal and had quite a few tracks. It seems to me that this yard would be more convenient for freights coming in from the north over the Raritan River bridge and the C&A in general. Brown's seems out of the way. Just a thought.
