Great catch Mike, C P and Amtrak on Ex New Haven rails.

The two tracks to the left, what sidings do they lead to.

Does the old soap plant still get cars ???

The track further back: no where

The one closer: Leads to The Flour Track, but this end not the access point.

In the past, CP leased the flour track, and had hopper cars there, but that was back in 2000. CSXT uses the flour track, and had recently had a trash customer called ELS there, but the customer left.

Now, the track is just used very lightly.

Also, yes, CSXT serves S&S soap with hopper cars that normally come down from Watkins Glen, NY off FGLK.

I'm curious, how many hours does it take for the D&H South Bronx Express to reack Kenwood Yard in Albany from Fresh Pond?
