A recent discussion via private message (PM) with another member led to the following question. What was the condition of Maine Central and Boston & Maine tracks at the time of sale to Guilford Transportation Industries (GTI)?
I was under the impression that the physical plant was significantly deteriorated. The other member had an understanding that overall the physical plant was in good shape with 40 mph top speeds on the main line and 25 mph speeds on the branch lines.
If anyone can clarify these points their assistance would be appreciated.
