NY&AR needs to get better at managing its yard space...they seem to have an awful lot of cars sitting around not moving. Cars should be there for a day or two at most, before being moved to their destination or handed off to CSX.A large freight yard/transload facility at the Pilgrim State Hospital facility would be helpful for LI...when the train comes across from Oak Point send all cars bound for eastern LI immediately to Pilgrim and organize all other trains out of there, freight for city destinations can be kept in one of the Fresh Pond Yards or a middle track on the Bay Ridge Branch until it's ready to be sent out. They definitely shouldn't be using the main tracks as a yard! |
