Re: (erielack) NY-98 spotting feature

The containers were unloaded in Weehawken in the early '70s. It was at the
north end of the Hoboken Shore at the junction with the E L Weehawken
branch. There was an overhead traveling crane and the entire area was paved.
I remember putting 3 or 4 cars at a time in there but it could hold more.
They were unloaded and drove right in the front gate of  SeaTrains property.

Croxton, and that's possibly where these cars were going?
