there used to be a lumber operation that ran through Reddington to a mill in frenchtown that ran under Rt 202.
when we rebuilt the three bridges on 202, one being over the railroad bed, i used to love hearing and then watching the train coming past. unfortunately that operation shut down around 25 years ago.
i also saw it a few times in Frenchtown when we repaved Rt 29
