Date: 07/01/16 07:26 Re: Stacker Rolls Along Next To New Second Track Author: sums007 Is there a target date to put the new main track into service?
Date: 07/01/16 07:46 Re: Stacker Rolls Along Next To New Second Track Author: walstib I don't know if there is an official date. I was talking to one of the construction guys yesterday and he said the new track is live now, and he expects they will begin using it for sometime in August.
The last couple of days they've been out there with a couple of track machines, and on Wednesday afternoon I caught a ballast train dumping rock at selected spots. Posted from iPhone |
