I thought this might deserve a new, clean topic as it looks like the next scrap drive might be in Pemberton. Not sure what a "receiver" is as covered in the below article, but I don't see good news here. http://www.phillyburbs.com/news/local/b ... 8b68a.html While the Trust continues to play this out in the courts, it might be worth folks in the preservation community to make contact with the mayor's office and make sure he knows the equipment should not be cut up. The link to the township with contact information is http://www.pemberton-twp.com/home It might be worth being ready to jump in just in case things need to be moved fast. A rough roster is as follows: GE 45 tonner, Roebling, GE 100 tonner, Roebling 1959 CR&IP 40' boxcar Tidewater tank car Gondola, came from Roebling. LV Hopper car, came from Roebling. Flat car, came from Roebling PRR N5C caboose PRR N6b caboose PRR NX23 caboose CNJ wood caboose Rail bus, 1930s? J.R. |

How sad. Just another example of owning and controlling your own property is the most important thing an organization can do. |

J.R. - Thanks for posting the equipment list. Would be nice if someone could post a recent photo of each piece. Les |

The below link has some shots the town provided almost two years ago when they were looking at auctioning off the equipment. http://www.pemberton-twp.com/trainsforsale If you use the search function on RyPN you should come up with more.

Another article out on this drama: http://www.phillyburbs.com/news/local/b ... 6e92a.html If you are looking to adopt any of this equipment, now may be the time, though it is not clear who to contact. |
