So I took a ride to Farleys today. Lots of company trucks parked around the crossing. Crews must’ve been working farther down the line. Could see where runoff came off the road on the uphill side of the crossing & covered the crossing & immediate area in debris. The railhead had obvious crushed stone on top. Didn’t look too serious, but it had already been cleaned up there. Maybe a more significant overflow happened farther away out of sight.
Went to Erving & saw a tamper & regulator working just east of the Millers river bridge. Also a crew doing some manual labor a bit closer to downtown. Boy, the vegetation is thick on both tracks in that area. Must make inspection & repair a PIA for the crews! It didn’t appear to be too torn up to the casual observer. The couple crunched ties I saw were due for replacement anyway. Probably a blessing in disguise.
