Hi,

Picking up on the earlier thread, everything not on live track near the Amtrak MoW base adjacent to the Hunter connection in Newark, NJ has been scrapped.

Final tally:

3 PRR round roof boxcars
2 Baggage cars
1 Navy boxcar (the only one of the bunch on trucks)
2 40' boxcars (one believed to be ex NYC)

While none of these were of the highest historical value, the destruction of 8 50 year old railcars at one clip is noteworthy.
