    I want to say THANK YOU to all of you the support on this video! Stay tuned.. I’ve got plans to drop another big video this Friday!
    Happy Monday!

    Thanks for the video; it’s always a pleasure to see a new short line taking over a branch like this. A lot of the original Norfolk Southern Railway in central NC is rotting away; thankfully, it looks like this segment has a future. This sneaked up on me; I’d never heard of this railroad before, I guess because it’s so new. Thanks again for the video!

    I live in Fuquay-Varina but had never seen this from the Raleigh side so pretty awesome. Once they get out of Fuquay-Varina and head towards Lillington it has go to be the slowest moving trains I have ever seen in my life. I always wondered if it was because it was a deferred maintenance line and they had to move that slow.

      @@midnightexpress8556 sadly I doubt it’ll ever happen… there’s a large wash out that’s taken out a good portion of the line. Not to mention there’s very little “interested” customers along that stretch of the line… so the likelihood of that line seeing any action soon is very unlikely… as unfortunate as that is

      @rail.tennessee  Год назад +1

      Thanks for watching! So over here in the states we have a numerical class ranking system, so your Class I’s are the large scale, national railroads (i.e BNSF, CSX, etc), Class II’s are the intermediate railroads (i.e Montana Rail Link, Iowa Interstate Railroad, etc), and Class III’s are your shortline railroads, regional railroads such as the Raleigh & Fayetteville.

      Yes, RJ Corman has individual railroads that make up the Corman family. The Raleigh & Fayetteville is one of them, becoming the 19th addition for RJ Corman. As a result, this railroad is a brand new shortline to service this region of North Carolina.
