That little pine barrens store behind the diner is like a gas station shop with no gas and some cheap t-shirts with odd slogans like "It's all about the Pines." Neither the diner nor that store really represented Shamong or the pines very well. In related news, the Red Lion Diner recently shut their doors for good.
Fire insurance and factory mutual companies developed such fire-resistant doors in an effort to stem losses from major conflagrations. Generally, the naked, tinned finish of the sheet metal would resist the fire better than if the door had received a coat of paint.
Winter is certainly not the time of year to have ones doors stolen
Now in my old age I have a 1995 Jeep for the pines, a lexus with 4 doors to carry people and a 2 door CTS that could use 100 more horsepower. I really miss the MGB's, collected a lot of Rally tropies with them.
Start knocking on doors and do some networking. Join the NJ Federation of Sportsmen's Clubs too and get their hunter's liability insurance policy. It comes with their $35 per year membership and you get an insurance certificate. I make copies and carry them in my truck.
Those doors were from a box car that derailed there a long time ago. I don't think the bent rails are associated with the derailment because I don't remember seeing them in the 90's and that track was in use up to 1978.
I had a metal bench with sliding doors that I would occasionally leave open and when I came to work in the morning I would close them. Ten hours later when I opened it the cat came flying out and headed down the isle and went into the back of an old lathe.
