Eastern Railroad Discussion > Greencastle Pa. Intermodal Terminal The Final Tour

The NS Intermodal Terminal at Greencastle Pa, part of the Crescent Corridor, is set to open in January 2013. The construction fellows are working on the final punch list to get things ready. First shot is of the Mi-Jacks that are using the EMP Trailer as a guinea pig to get the cranes adjusted. It is getting slapped around pretty good. Second shot is NS211 pounding down the main at about 60 per through CP65. He really sneaked up on me with that welded rail. You can see the Hykes road Bridge in the distance. Third shot is the west (south) end of the terminal with a shot of the Pad 2 track. I am predicting some issues here in the future, especially if they are shoving mty spine cars in the consist....

Yeah, that really does look like a pretty short/tight 'S' turn there, doesn't it?

Did you by any chance get a brochure or anything that shows the plan - layout? Or any idea on stats? Like TF of ramp working tracks and storage - staging tracks; parking spaces; etc? TIA for any info.
