I appreciate your clear date and place captions. And it's good to see track being built.

What's the purpose for the new spur?   I suppose it's not very often that Iowa Traction lays new track so good for them.

Believe new spur needed for car storage.  Didn't get a chance to ask many questions account friendly train crew was very busy.
