Gary The SIDING did extend east of Ryerson Road, but NOT over the Pompton River Bridge. The switch was between the two. When they moved the switch west of Ryerson Rd, they did loose some capacity. Probable 6-8 cars?? Bob Bahrs In a message dated 8/1/2008 3:33:57 P.M.

It once extended east across the Pompton River bridge. I suspect it was cut back so that trains would not block Ryerson Road. **************Looking for a car that's sporty, fun and fits in your budget? Read reviews on AOL Autos.
