For a long time, Coastal was getting these huge garbage cars, but it's been awhile since I've caught any action near there (I forget the plate letter on the car.) Isn't the clearance limit 15'6''?

if i recall right there was some agreement made early on that nya & csx couldn't haul MSW out over the bridge as part of the agreement to lease freight ops from LIRR. I believe it only had a 5 year cap from startup date of operations though.
