Yes, I could see the Conrail hoppers through the bare trees, as well as a number of narrow gauge hoppers still in the yard (I counted at least 9 behind the McDonald's, with who knows how many more out of view). However, I resisted the urge to go in for a closer look because I didn't want to trespass.

Is the plan to extend the dual gauge down to the industrial park still going ahead? From the highway I could see no evidence of recent (post-1956) MOW work of any kind south of Mount Union, not even a single tree cut along the ROW.
