So this is the new "repair" facility for the debris cars? I just wish i knew this ahead of time to try and get some action going across 17. I wonder if they will be building somekind of shed to protect from the elements. RT.80 was perfect. I wonder why they are moving?

2 cars were down there tonight full of debris.

MIR Logistics (I'm not sure if that's the exact name, but it should be close), the company that gets all those hoppers at Passaic Jct, purchased Bulk (I don't know the exact name of the company), the company that gets all those hoppers down in North Bergen. Due to increasing demand for track space down in the swamp, and a couple new customers coming on line, MIR is looking to shift some of the traffic from North Bergen to Elmwood Park. As a result, they want to use the track space currently occupied by the shopped cars.

New Customers for MIR (I presume), or new customers for NYSW?
