Pocono Auto Facility Photos

Pocono Auto Facility served Chrysler and opened in ??  It had four unloading tracks and a large auto storage yard. The railroad served it from a double-ended siding to the north of the mainline and used a switchback-style lead to access the unloading tracks inside the facility.  In 1999 the facility appeared pretty much as it had been when closed, but shortly after these photos were made, construction began on a Con Agra grain mill.  The site is now an active destination for a Grain Train run by the Delaware-Lackawanna Railroad.  

Not served by the railroad but located along the right-of-way,  a hardwood company is just (railroad) west of the Auto Facility. A model of the area will need to include that company as well, so here are photos of that facility, too

The two panorama pictures below give a good overview of the facility.  The unloading tracks were in the distance, where the light poles are still standing.
