Posted by timz2 on Sat Mar 8 19:28:46 2008, in response to Re: my father is a GG1 fan ( prr 30s to 55' ), posted by WillD on Sat Mar 8 16:31:29 2008. "Welded rails have been around for a while now, and the NEC has had it for probably 25 years.""Try 10 to 15 years tops. I was out here in 1996 and remember seeing bolted rail on parts of the NEC." On the NH, or Hell Gate line, you mean? I suspect Metroliners always had two CWR tracks to run on, west of NY. (Outside of terminal areas, that is.) Offhand I'm guessing Newark-Phila had four CWR mains by the early or mid 1980s. |
