david sharpe General Rail traffic through Alex has increased greatly since NS put this connector in.The track inspector for the Marion-Anderson portion said that NS may rebuild the old connector on the NW quadrant of the Alex diamond.Doing this would eliminate the"seesaw"turn for the Marion-Frankfort job,as well as a locomtive on both ends of the train. 12/31/2008 8:55:51 PM
