Re: Say Goodbye to the old Clinchfield

Hopefully CSX will keep the rails in a la Tennessee Pass on the DRGW should the lines be needed in the future. You just never know, and once pulled it's almost impossible to put 'em back in. I certainly hope. With the coal, I look at it like this. Yes, in the long run coal is way way down but, it g...

Re: NS Peavine talk

The Pocahontas division is gone. I do know that. Not sure what other divisional realignments are being planned. But the pokey is going to be merged into the lake and Virginia divisions early next year. As for the 1000 miles of lines NS is looking to get rid of. Bit. I haven't heard of any lines bei...

Brought a tear to my eye. :cry:

As a fellow railroader I wish these men and women the best. It's never good to see an entire line shutdown.

Re: NS Peavine talk

The wrong people are losing their minds about it. If you work for NS you have every right to say what you want and be worried. The foamers worried about meaningless things like the steam program and the endless American Chopper special locos need to get a life. When you're dealing with the amount o...

Can't access Paper Railroads?
