New Jersey’s fifteen-mile-long Rahway Valley was another short line that took advantage of the ICC incentive per diem boxcar rates of the late 1970’s. By the mid-1980’s, the rules were again changed, and many of the IPD owners were stuck with cars that were not being used. For some reason, the Lake Erie Franklin & Clarion picked up some of the RV cars, patched them, and put them in service, as seen here at East Penn Junction, Pennsylvania.
