Hi Dennis, The paint was dumped in abandoned Iron mines that were dug from pre revolutionary days till 1921. My favorite part of the world, the Ramapo mtns, Sterling Forest. On Good Friday 1964 a buddy and I walked along the Erie railroad tracks from Glen Rock N.J to Sloatsburg N.Y. We then walked up the abandoned iron mine railraod tracks. That would be the Sterling Mtn RR. Before the railroad took the iron out of the mines and brought it to where it was used...mules and oxen ...did that work. The railroad didn't start till 1865. Lots of history right there.
My uncle worked in the Mahwah shop that maintained the over the road transport trucks. From 1954-57. The name on the tractor doors used to be, "University Overland Express," or UOE.
All the best Pete.

Hi Dennis, Ty for your info too. Something there are so many "strange" medical conditions in that area. Really appreciate you writing. So many don't have the common decency to write back individually Just a trite,"Thanks for all the comments guys." That is why I seldom write.
All the best, Pete.
