Was driving to the Howell Lowes and saw a nice looking backhoe clearing brush on the switch track that goes into the old lumberyard on Oak Glen Rd. Now it's Ferguson. Came back and saw the area by the tracks was all cleared out as well. Is Conrail putting in something new? I heard the Howell residents were trying to fight off a Lakewood backed garbage dump in that area. Could this have anything to do with the dump?
FrontFrank, you should perhaps copy this into the Delaware and Raritan River thread, as they now handle freight along this line, having taken over from Conrail. Maybe they are picking up a new customer. That would be good.
