Tuckahoe has more capacity than in the past but I'm not sure it's enough for everything that's at Rio Grande. I spoke with a CMSL employee a couple weeks ago who said there was a concerted effort to get all of the rolling stock out of RG ASAP, and this was before the fire. He also said that the neighbors in Tuck were much more accommodating than further south and were even "keeping an eye on things". I would imagine that all of the RDC's and the Tempel would need to have some brake maintenance at a minimum before they can be moved, not sure how roadworthy some of the other cars are. I hate to see all of Tony's and others' efforts to preserve and operate this equipment be destroyed by a few who have no regard for anything.
Another issue that could affect Tuckahoe capacity is the occasional storage of tank cars which helps to provide some revenue. I also don't know if the Circus Train will be coming down again but, if so, space will be needed for that as well.
