"Local_Freight_Schedules.jpg" - image/jpeg, 2357x2189 (256c)

I came across this schedule and want to know more about freight activity
on the old main between Harriman, NY and Howells, NY. This schedule
shows 4 freights, #83, Pickup, Local and RN Exa. I am assuming that #83
and the pickup are opposite sides of the same train and that the Local
and the RN Exa would also be opposites. I plan to build an HO model
railroad featuring Middletown, NY between 1946 and 1952. I would like to
know if these are the only freights that ran there at the time and what
kind of power would be on them. It would appear that a Berk would pull
#83 and Mikes would be on the Pickup but I have never seen mention of
the other two trains. Would you have seen R1 or R3 2-10-2's on that
line? How about a Russian decapod? What F units would have been seen.
