Eastern Railroad Discussion > GA: Cordele Railfan platform?Date: 11/23/20 14:28 GA: Cordele Railfan platform? Author: Lackawanna484 How is this project coming along? Early construction pictures looked great.
Any idea on opening date? Posted from Android Date: 11/24/20 06:50 Re: GA: Cordele Railfan platform? Author: Dewman45 I will be going through Cordele on Friday and I can give everyone a update.

Author: Trainhand Today, I was passing through Cordele and stopped at the truck stop at I-75, there was a CSX train heading north on the Fitzgerald sub. I couldn't get a good look at it, but it looked like it was all LP tanks. I couldn't see placards. My question, would there be such a thing as a unit train of LPgas loaded or mty?

These products are stripped out /fractioned from wet natural gas, among other sources, and sold for subsequent processing. Date: 11/25/20 13:12 Re: GA: Cordele Railfan platform? Author: CE921 I was there on Nov. 17. It was close to being finished, with a little more work to do. Parking lot paving and landscaping hadn't been completed
