in this months TRAINS magazine, there is an article about rails. There is new rail, 141 lb, that a lot of freight RR's have been putting in on their RR's like, UP and CSX.
My question:
The rail between Holden and Mansfield is 131 lb, will Amtrak convert this section to 141 lb any time soon, or will they just wait until the track that is there now, needs to be replaced?
2) The new rails that Amtrak put on curves between Canton Junction and Mansfield, is that rail 141 lb or still the 131 lb?
