This past Saturday I saw a cut of six GATX tanker cars right in the middle of the old Ford plant yard in Linden next to the NEC. I didn't think they still used that trackage. Maybe they were defective and were going to be sent out for repairs...who knows. Anyone know what they are planning on doing with that yard? Rip up for scrap metal or keep a few tracks in operation?
Did you mean the former GM plant in Linden off Rt 1? The Ford plant was in Edison (Metuchen), also off Rt 1.
Via Google Aerial view, GM plant site is light industry/distribution centers, Ford plant may be retail (Top Golf?)
lots of empty land around both, kind of a meh state of reuse for both sites...
