Just watching the movie, it looks like a private industrial siding.

I checked on imdb.com and Brewster's Millions was shot in and around New York City. We will have to find a New Yorker to get more information.

BOYD: 

Richard Pryor played Montgomery Brewster (Monty) in the 1985 movie.

1) he was a pitcher for the Minor league Hackensack Bulls 

     He also had a position with the Toledo Mud Hens, and according to the plot line at one point he hires the New York Yankees to play a three inning game with the Hackensack Bulls.

 There is apparently only a couple of possible locations Toledo, or Hackensack. A local would have to confirm railroads near the parks(?)

Some of the actors in the movie Hume Cronyn, John Candy, Richard Pryor, Lonete McKee.

  Off Topic    Ok, Boyd what does that get me besides Off Topic?   Oops - Sign

Where is the ballfield depicted in the movie Brewsters Millions where the train goes through the outfield?

Modeling the "Fargo Area Rapid Transit" in O scale 3 rail.
