While getting ready to leave work this evening train # 654 was pulling into the Smithtown RR station on the siding track. It was going slow but making a loud banging noise. I thought it was a flat wheel but the noise didn't travel with the train so after the tracks were clear I went out back and looked at the rails I noticed this big defect in the rail. Actually it is on both running rails and there are also more spots down about 50 feet (lenght between a set of trucks?).
