Symbol: WS-2 (Little Ferry Based Local)
Date: November 23, 2022
Location 1: Pierson Miller Drive - Pompton Lakes, NJ
Location 2 & 3: Hamburg Turnpike (Pompton Industrial Branch) - Riverdale, NJ
Consist: CSXT #2722 (GP38-2), CSXT #2651 (GP38-2), plus 6 freight.
Notes: Today we do a short chase of local job WS-2. After having completed a drop at Carry Transit in Oakland, NJ, WS-2 is seen proceeding westbound towards Pompton Junction where it will reverse onto the former Greenwood Lake branch (now NYSW Pompton Industrial). Once on the Pompton Industrial, WS-2 will proceed southbound into the brick yard at Riverdale, NJ to pick up three empty boxcars. Despite the railroad not operating on a "set schedule", movements into the brick yard on the Pompton Industrial are very often done in the early-mid afternoon, typically on Tuesdays or Wednesdays.
