    • @BlackMan614
      @BlackMan614 5 лет назад +7

      A lot of times short-lines are leasing the track from NS or CSX. They legally cannot improve the ROW per the legal agreement. NS/CSX is responsible... and you know they won't do anything beyond the bare minimum.

    • @ffjsb
      @ffjsb 5 лет назад +5

      No. The employees are being paid regardless, and you don't use any supplies on a simple rerail job. Fixing the track means bringing in special equipment, ballast, ties, and anything else they need. That's a lot more money. This railroad is probably operating on a shoe string.

    • @phillijp
      @phillijp 5 лет назад +6

      Not true at all, I live along rails owned by Norfolk Southern, they lease the section along our house to a small rail company and they handle all the maintenance on the section they lease. I see their equipment on the rails weekly.

    • @ronbelnap8370
      @ronbelnap8370 5 лет назад +2

      Short line agreements pass the Mtn responsibility to the lessee. That is one of the main reasons for the big rr to lease, to get out of the maintenance expense.

    I drove a Michigan double logging truck for a little while. I loaded rail cars in L'ance Michigan in 04&05. There is a hill a few miles south east that limits the number of Cars one engine can pull so they split the Manifest and pull one half at a time up to a siding on the other side and come back for the second half. One day I was talking to the engineer and he invited me to take a short ride up and back. According to him their wasn't enough money in the local Freight for more money to be invested in the tracks. If the tracks were in better shape I think it's possible that he could have made the hill without splitting his manifest because he could have gotten more speed. I remember the cars swaying quite a bit like in this video and going slowly. It was a fun ride and a good memory.
