I recall riding my bike up to Garret Mountian and looking down at the N Scale sized Paterson Yard and seeing it filled with shinny new strange "Blue" EL Boxcars. Must have been 1975. > If I recall correctly, before this building was built and before the EL merger, this area was a good sized yard on the DL&W and also, back in the early 1950's or earlier, there was a large tie and/or pole creosote plant located here also. Does anyone have any info on that by chance? Joe K ------------------------------
