You didn't shrink in close enough. What you see east of Jaybrid Rd on Google Maps is a decent length trestle. I thought the same thing until I looked closer. There's decent size washout between Jaybird and Rarden that needs repaired if and when NS opens up more of the out of service line for them. ...

Well I guess for the last few weeks they have been working Saturday and Sunday's and even night shifts. I’m not sure if it’s just because of them running to plum run or not.

Ok thank you. Did you catch a video of the train at Plum Run?

As of right now January 2 2022 at 8:10 pm on a Sunday they just dropped empty cars off at plum run. They are now running 7 days a week it looks like.

Interesting, I thought they did not run on weekends. You mean 7 days a week in general or to Plum Run?

Thank you

You are welcome. The CCET has been doing really well from what I have heard.

I looked up Rarden OH and didn't see anything other than someone's mainline (NS?). Where is the Rarden you're referring too and what is there that can be serviced by rail? Rarden OH I believe is around Milepost 80-82 of the Peavine line. Start at Peebles on Google Maps and head east to where the tr...

Norfolk southern is the reason they don’t have to Rarden yet.

Strange, I thought Norfolk Southern liked that the Peavine was getting more business. The Rarden siding would sure help the CCET with storage cars.

Currently it is a revenue producer on the stone. They haul maybe two times a week from the rock query from what I have heard on the scanner. The Purina Plant is moving on very quickly.

Does anyone know when they stopped train service on the CN Oak Point Subdivision between Milepost 4.10 and 6.80? I know the portion between Milepost 7.80 and 11.40 is used for serving a grain elevator and the portion between Milepost 0.00 and 4.10 was abandoned in November 2000. But recently, the cr...

So they were hauling the commerercail stone for free??

No, what I mean is that they were hauling the stone for only railway repairs and and construction. But now companies can pay them to haul stone.

Yes they were hauling stone before November 29th. But before that date, it was not for revenue. It was basically only hauled if needed for railway repairs and construction.

Are the stone trains weekly now? It says on their website that they ran their first revenue stone train from Plum Run on November 29, 2021. Also, how is the Purina plant going?
