That could make for some interesting switching moves between the two spurs. One could be a supplier's track, and the other a customer's track....
Amen to that. Take CN's former Turcot roundhouse, which got demolished in 1962 to make way for a tangled, poorly designed and poorly built highway...
Amazing assortment of passenger rolling stock! Is that a FM H12-44TS peeking into the photo on the right? :) That one is great. Very...
That's a nice piece of history. Thanks for sharing, Russell.(y)
A fine set of photos and great captions, love the humor. And thanks for including one of mine.
It's a GP7, for sure. Looks like Athearn. I like the way its weathered and worn. It looks like it works hard to earn its keep.

Nice trees.:) With very good results. That kind of activity gets the brain going and it quickly learns to spot usable stuff in rubbish that...

If I had only the first picture, I would think that the load was a very large wooden beam or assembly that got mangled in a tornado or something...
I can imagine getting an e-mail from Amazon like that, then going to the pickup counter at the drug stores postal outlet, only to get a very stern...
