I dont know if the TRU warehouse wil ever get service again, but the google maps satelite view shows the spur that runs along the warehouse has been paved over. I guess the building will never get rail service again. Anyone know who uses the building now and if ME has ever tried getting them on as a customer?
I believe this topic was covered in other threads, to the effect that NS/ToysRUs found it more cost effective to transload hi cube box cars or intermodal containers in the big transload facilities near the old Bethlehem steel mill, and dray them over to the warehouse, than to ship in non-hi cube box cars on 10mph track into NJ. I believe they were shipping bulk packages of diapers.
Someone with direct knowledge, please feel free to correct me.
Now that Toys R Us is bankrupt and at best greatly diminished, a new owner is likely to come for that warehouse.
Perhaps the C&D operation can entice back some clients.
