RJ Corman has had a high rail ten wheeler with boom for dropping ties parked at the Clinton depot this week. Today the equivalent PAR ten wheeler along with a PAR pickup truck were at the old depot. Neither ten wheeler had ties on it. On a (sort of) related note, the Fitchburg running track consist has been tied down close to the depot for the last couple of days. There are no C&D cars but there are boxcars. It looks like after servicing the lower half of the line, they never returned south and just tied down.
I am curious - in the places where Pan Am "could have" run at 50 MPH but chose to cap their speeds at 40 MPH (ie between Plaistow and Portland) - is CSX still sticking to 40 or have they upped it to 50?
Thanks, by the way, for all of the great information that is shared in this group.
