And is the switch and siding still intact?Nothing really new happening lately. The relay rail is still rusting in place. I'm starting to think it was dropped there well in advance of any actual project for storage purposes.

And the lumber company in Irvington, Manufacturers Reserve receive service? And there was a Korean frozen fish distributor in Hillside that got sporadic service, the name is Seoul Shik Poom.Oasis is by far the most active customer on the line. They have a multi-track storage yard adjacent to I-78 and receive multiple loads each weekday (I'd guess an average of 4-5 per day).
