Corman Sand Train
Author: srman

Yesterday afternoon I sort of stumbled into a Corman move along River Rd. in Louisville Ky. Corman runs a sand train from Nugent Sand but I have no idea how often they run this train. I just got lucky.
Heading west along River Rd., turning under I-71 and finally as it negociates a parking lot in an entertainment area around Butchertown before it turns east onto CSX to get on its own rails.

RJCR normally operates five round trips per week.  Several years ago, operating times were very regular, now they seem to vary.
Enjoyed your photos.

The sand train is opperated by RJ Corman Railroad Company's Central Kentuky Lines (RJCC) and RJ Corman Material Sales on a Monday through Friday basis. The train runs round trip, usually in the late evening/early morning. Durring the day the train is unloaded by excavator into dump trucks at Rupp Yard in Lexington, KY

How many cars does the train typically run?
