Rich,
Worked one day in 1967 at Lisle. After the morning parade
it was totally dead. There was a car on the Team Track
across from the depot that was being unloaded so I walked
over. It was 2x4's in a 40', 6' door box car. Two guys
were transferring to a truck one or two at a time. They
said it normally took about two days to get a whole car
over to their yard. I did help a little bit but it was
like trying to empty the beach with a bucket.
Times change,
Russ
I can imagine that unloading a full box car of lumber
through a center door couldn't have been much fun!
