Anyone's guess who'll maintain. Both are at fresh pond, neither will enter the LIRR mainline once their inside the terminal, so no asc.
I'm curious to see if it's going to be existing an stone customer or someone entirely new (bringing more loads into the island, and not just reshuffling them) and of course where that stone will come from - CT via P&W or elsewhere via CSX.
I've seen a few csx work trains on the route from oak point to fresh pond in the last two weeks. Not sure if it's routine work or the relaying of the second track to some point further north of swamp switch (basically to add capacity in fremont). That project was rumored awhile ago but never happened so far as I know. Work trains had ballast and rail cars, so it seems like they're doing more than just changing a few ties...
