The WCRR does not plan to run any regular trains there, however it was the only option they had to keep the line open to the outside world. Unfortunately SEPTA pawned all of the maintenance off on them as well.
Does this open up the possibility of a train to 30th or maybe Lansdale again? I'd assume the rest of the track is kept up for access to the Lenni Substation. Also would there be any chance of the quarry being able to ship by rail again?

Is the substation still live? I asked here but I don't think anyone answered.
