Listers,
The Box cars (there were usually 4 or 5 cars per night) on NY99 were from JC
Penneys and were car floated over from NY to make the connection from what I
remember. At a later date they may have been loaded on the Jersey side and
then added to 99 at Croxton, but I don't know where they might have been loaded.
The empties mostly returned in ordinary freight. Penneys used mostly 40 foot
box cars for the loads.
