OWLS diamond at Walkerton good for timetable speed of 60 Pas, Inter. 50 Freight. Wow realy smooth.

Sounds similar to what they did up here in Grafton, OH. Could you tell if the diamond looked rough for NS?

[sd70accsxt700]

Hard to tell what the diamond lookd like for the Elkhart Western (?) Watco, at 60 MPH, felt the same for us.

what diamond the one at CP421 in Elkhart?, or another diamond on the elkhart western out at Plymouth? cause the one in Elkhart is only good for 20 mph,

[sd70accsxt700]

Walkerton is on the CSX. Where the ex-NKP to Michigan City ran, that NS sold to Elkhart Western (Watco).

[canpac08]

ah ok thats what I was thinking but they did not sell it to WATCO. its part of the Pioneer Rail Corp family.

[sd70accsxt700]

Was it Pioneer? I thought it was Watco, hum....ok well as long as we all know who and where we are.

Is Elkhart & Western a in the Pioneer camp?
