The status quo continues on the Mount Hood. Most if not all of the passenger equipment is still in the yard in Hood River. Western Rail 2250 is still on the property. The transload in Odell has been very busy with a lot of lumber moving out. Nothing has moved south of Odell, and the tracks are burie...

Great video, thank you for sharing! Nice shot at the end with the plane landing. Near the end it seemed that you were hovering fairly close to the ground when the train passed under, are there any issues about that? Could the crew see the drone? Just curious

[The Commonwealth] should be putting money into helping NS buy out CSX’s share of PAS and help them with grants to bring D-3 up to Class 3, fix the tunnel and whatever else needs to be done to clear it for Domestic DS’s to Ayer A perfect example of what Noam Chomsky calls "socializing the cost...

I live in the Columbia River Gorge, and watch the huge unit trains of Potash that CP sends to the northwest ports for export and have to believe that it is at least possible that something similar is afoot in Searsport. Ocean shipping routes seem to be changing for whatever reasons, and the fact tha...

I really enjoy all of the discussion and speculation around the possible sale, thank you to all the contributors. One question I have is what proportion of the traffic that NS moves west over PAS now originates from points east of Ayer, and would that likely go away if CSX purchased PAR? What I am r...
