Can't answer for all of the areas but the Albany Division is dispatched out of Selkirk yard. In your area of New Jersey you probably hear the NI dispatcher (former NJ dispatcher) NI controls the Port of Albany line from CP-SK to Kenwood Yard (Canadian Pacific), River line from CP-SK all the way int...

Waldwick, didn't think you railfanned as far up as Newburgh. One question for you... The local that went onto the Newburgh Industrial, did it pick up/drop off a car at the entrance to the industrial track or did it go up and serve Ray's railroad materials. Reason I ask is I saw last year they put ad...

Re: The Beacon Line

Observed a high rail pickup on the Beacon line today. Vehicle was checking from Brewster to the CT state line. Caught it around 1500 hours going up to the state line. Assume with the markings of SRS it was owned by Sperry. Last time I saw Sperry checking the line was a few years back with there Dood...

Saw one of the earlier posts stated about a detour of the Q090 and wanted to pass along I was just listening to the scanner this morning, and just heard Q090 making a meet with a X351 and a K144 in Milton, NY River line milepost QR69.

Well since you mentioned cops I'll add my two cents. Like lvrr325 stated, I'm sure no one would be the wiser is it disappeared. However, just so you know the other side of the coin is not only are you trespassing on railroad property but also committing petit larceny. That milepost while originally ...

Seems to be a lot of track work up and down the river line. Today crews were replacing a section of rail and welding rail between CP69 and CP66 interlock and the siding. Also were doing work near the team track in MT. Marion, QR99 and the dispatcher was advising of signal outages from CP124 northwar...

Waldwick thanks for the list.... I wish I could have had stayed out longer and thanks for the corrections to some of my list.
