Re: (erielack) West Boonton Yard... then and now

["Paul Brezicki" <doctorpb_@_bellsouth.net>]

The "then" photo shows a variety of tank cars for Drew Chemical, including 
at least one older expansion dome tanker which were becoming rare by the 
mid-1970's. Which cars were the "water bottles"?

I had to work from home today, so on the way there I stopped at Boonton
briefly to see the collection of URHS historic equipment that was moved into
the newly-restored West Boonton Yard over this past weekend. Here's a shot
of the line-up (attached), and for comparison, a photo of the EL at this
same exact location well over 3 decades prior can be found at:

Ignore the location on that photo, it's most definitely Boonton, not Bound
Brook! :)
