Proctor Hill         
While I waited for the hill job to come up from the docks (which I sadly later missed) I noticed that one could clearly see where the second main used to be. You can see a clear trail of taconite pellets on the right, right where the second track once was.

Jacob Nelson General Was a mainline moved? 3/24/2010 11:45:49 PM
Alan Fricker General Not moved but removed. With the decline of the domestic steel making market, the need for taconite is down, so the 2nd main isn't needed anymore. Sad to see. 3/25/2010 9:38:30 AM
