Re: (erielack) Seatrain (was: NY-98 spotting feature)

 
Seatrain did move to Port Newark. In the mid 1970s I worked for a courier  
outfit similar to today's FedEX. I picked up small pack packages at  Seatrain in 
Port Newark on many occasions.

In this  week's crash course on Seatrain, I haven't been able to find much on
the  Container Division (Google listings dominated by a band of the same
name),  so I will defer to those more knowledgable. It wouldn't surprise me
if  operations shifted to Port Newark at some point, that's where the  action
was for containerships. However acc to the OG listing and Gordon  Smith's
comment, it looks like initially Weehawken was it, at least while  EL
existed. I would encourage listers to check out the RMIG site and  Bill's
reference, they make for fascinating reading of the co's earlier  history.
