Eastern Railroad Discussion > Roanoke adding track work on the web cam.Date: 04/21/17 08:10 Roanoke adding track work on the web cam. Author: czuleget I see what looks like a new track being installed on the web cam. Will this new track be a new lead to the yard. Inbound or out bound or both?
Date: 04/21/17 09:01 Re: Roanoke adding track work on the web cam. Author: rhotond This new track is the track for the new passenger station. Track will hold 8 pas cars and 1 engine. It will tie in to the left of the picture. Not known if it will tie in to main under the bridge in the picture. Back hoes etc are drilling foundations for the high level platform. Station is to be just this side of the parking garage in the picture.
A maintenance base is to be constructed on the Charoltte line about 1/2 mile south of the wye off of the single track. Info from newspaper articles via google search r Date: 04/21/17 10:54 Re: Roanoke adding track work on the web cam. Author: kgmontreal >

No expense was spared. It's fully fenced, illuminated by floodlights, has an office/crew building and the track is in. KG Date: 04/21/17 10:55 Re: Roanoke adding track work on the web cam.

The new passenger platform track will be open at both ends.
