Nelligan is incorrect. I don't think you'll even find tariffs that would 
allow sucgh a move, even if a shpper attempted to route that way.

As I wrote earlier, this was always the despair of regional planners, 
because even most NH-LIRR freight went from Port Morris to LIC via float; 
some NH-NYC traffic even went 60th St to Port Morris with a track connection 
in the Bronx.

Now I've been at this business long enough to know that someone can cite an 
exception -- but this was simply not an interchange gateway, Even the PRR 
floated LIRR traffic from Greenville to LIC. The LIRR did no interchange for 
its own account at Bay Ridge.
