Posted by AlM on Sat Oct 26 14:00:26 2024, in response to Re: questions, posted by Fisk Ave Jim on Sat Oct 26 11:23:18 2024. This would eliminate the 2 day delay in shipping freight all the way up to Selkirk, cross the Hudson then down the east side of the Hudson to Oak Point to be then shipped over the Hell Gate to LI.It's only a 2 day delay because LI has no freight yard able to handle a full 100 car train load, so trains have to be reassembled in Selkirk Yard. If you had a full train load from NJ to LI, it's only about 250 miles from northern NJ to Nassau County via the Selkirk Bridge. No reason that should take more than 6 or 8 hours in the middle of the night when passenger train traffic is minimal. |
