In researching this post, I read some interesting things about that railway.Michaelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07917230984518214781noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3680264279342137192.post-15461117806518218032016-09-26T20:37:33.073-04:002016-09-26T20:37:33.073-04:00Listen to these wise men, Michael.

Well said GP9. There are always interesting things to see on any train. I have always wanted to railfan on this line.
