I was driving on Limecrest Road from Rt. 15 yesterday and observed a track gang working on the Susquehanna at what used to be Sparta Junction. It appeared that they were cutting out a section of straight track and installing a switch and also, it looked like they were installing new track on the old LHR ROW. My guess is that the new track is going to serve the gas company, but it was interesting to see part of Sparta Junction coming back to life. Does anyone have better information on what they are doing up there?
Here's a diagram of what Sparta Junction used to look like before they pulled the LHRRR up. http://www.gingerb.com/l&hr_sparta_jct_map.htm
