I just tossed it out for discussion, friends - with the point to be made that the railroads (as with most big corporations) often miss or ignore some very ...
I think Ford would be happy just to get the parts off Q241 in a timely fashion. Yesterday was the first on time 241 I've seen in weeks. As for the tunnel...

Just a bit of info. The 9008, a chop nosed GP-9, is down for repairs in Lexington. It was stationed at Alcan in Berea doing industrial switching. The problem...
Passed through Beaver Dam this afternoon and noticed a cut of gondolas and hoppers cut across the crossing at 231. What train brings these cars to Beaver dam?...
Even if it's very rare, what cases are there of abandoned RRs brought back to life, whether in KY or elsewhere? This thought was brought up by the recent if...
