Post by: Tom Pinnick on May 01, 2013, 06:32:15 pm

A brushcutter has worked from New Albany to Mitchell. It is parked on the main just south of the B&O tonight.

If the brush cutter made the run all the way up, they must only have stored cars in the passing tracks...last I knew, the main was fouled too.

As you say, 'dare we hope?'

Pretty sure that there are no cars in storage anywhere. On another listing someone said that the track was under a "707" status, which meant that the roadmaster was in charge until the end of the year. Also, a CSX (B&O) type said that there were plans to dump rip-rap at some washouts.
