I seen that theres Construction vehicles and they dug a few feet of ground. Seems like they are gonna remove the rails and ties before lowering the bed then put them back and reballast the tracks. and complete it.
Seems The Doublestack clearance project will probably have Autoracks and Q190 And Q191 on the trenton line. Whats gonna happen to the Wood connecting track

The Wood connecting track will still have use as a possible escape route for ns trains and the NS has rights over the Trenton line to Wood. The C746 also now uses this route when heading to lansdale Via the Stoney Creek branch with high cars. Don't worry this short segment of track will not be jeopardized by the loss of Q190/Q191 after the Trenton line clearance project is completed.
