(erielack) #3599, Drew Chemical



I have often wondered WHAT did Drew Chem really do?Bill Shep's 1974 track diagrams show the schematic; Sanford maos give dimensions.

A search on Drew gave some info, relating to margine. But no details.

Tabor's books say that they were one of the Lack's largst customers, and that up to 50 tank cars would be there at

times.

A visit to their site some 10 years ago, found little remaining.

Specicly, what products came in, and out, and in what types of cars?

and to which buildings?

I heard somewhere that used water was hauled, in tankcars, to Secaucus, and dumped into the river; were these

cars specific to this traffic, or were they cleaned somewhere, and used for other products?

so many questions...... and so little time.

73's, Charlie Gerow
