Eastern Railroad Discussion > Carfloating in the snowDate: 01/19/18 05:47 Carfloating in the snow Author: sixaxlecentury 1- NYNJ Rail 2293 with 2 reach cars waiting during a quick, but intense snow storm the other day.
2- 1st Eastbound float arrives. 3- By the time they turned the float and came back east a 2nd time, the snow finally let up.    Date: 01/19/18 05:50 Re: Carfloating in the snow Author: sixaxlecentury - 2nd and finally westbound float for the day with the Joyce D. Brown. Unfortunately the sun never popped back out.
- Back to Greenville with empty concrete tie cars from LIRR, empty Malt cars, and 2 loads of glass cullet.   Date: 01/19/18 06:33 Re: Carfloating in the snow Author: CPR_4000 Is that the new float?
