SGL,
Thanks for the map. Those at maptech are just great. From the research I have done and the infor I have recieved from the libraries up there it seems as if there wasn't any yard. I wonder however, how did they turn engines at GL? There's no indication of a wye and the closest turntable was operating in Wanaque/Midvale. Maybe they would turn them there in time for the morning commute. 

Anyone?
