Hy-rail |
| Description: |
A hot-rod? Make-shift hy-rail? Maybe some of both. The inner set of bolt on rims actually ride the wall of tie gondols barely seen just ahead of the RDC Budd car in the distance. Not sure what the outter rim is for, but I did notice those outter rims are zig-zag welded which tells me maybe they use them to pull cable maybe? |

New switch - West |
| Description: |
This switch goes in on the East/West Connection, near the North end of East Junction. The location for this is behind me in this picture. I have no idea how they're gonna get this monster in place. It has to be moved as one piece and close to 100 yards to its spot. This area was the only wide place there was, to unload this and put it together. Behind me to the left of this picture is a steep dropoff down to the roadway. |
