That crew will be sea sick by the time they get to their destination.

What could be worth the risk of derailing this locomotive on a track like this ?? Just curious, not being critical.

Not saying that it is good track - however, telephoto lens and cropping make the track look much worse than it probably is.
|
Looks a lot like the early days at T.T.I. in KY.
I'd say the track is really that bad and not a product of photography.
I remember running a light engine over a stretch of track that disappeared under mud and water when we ran over it.

CSX wants to cut costs and serve customers this way.... Does Maryland Metals have much of a future or receive many cars each week or month? The rail has some polish on it, which suggest that this is still a decent customer for CSX, but who knows what CSX thinks these days.

What is maximum operating MPH over track like this?
|
Probably 10 mph but they likely go less.
MD Metals is a regular customer- maybe 3-6 cars per week or so.
