I haven't been up in the Madison-North Anson area lately, and am wondering whether anything is going on on the Somerset (North Anson Industrial Track) north of the Madison mill. Is there still an occasional train to the old North Anson Reel/Cousineau mill, or is the track still lying there dormant?

Drove through N Anson yesterday and there are big piles of ballest stone stockpiled in Cousineau's yard with two loaded side dumps and several old center dumps on the south side of Union St. I couldn't see if they were loaded or numbers of the cars. I assume this is from the Emden quarry. No evidence of any rail work north of the river.
