MOW Crews @ 12:00 currently active between Wells Siding mp 41.4 to mp 43.2
Work seems imminent further south as well. Porta-potties placed and asphalt cut for crossing replacement on Linco Road and Livingston Road.
Last time I was down that way, ties had been set out on the main track only. Now there are lots of ties laid out for a heavy rehab of Livingston siding as well.
Downtown Stevensville also has had the asphalt cut at both crossings for crossing replacement

L414 (Crawfordsville Local) eastbound lite on the former NYC in Crawfordsville, Indiana right down the middle of Franklin St. GP40-3 #6535 took one loaded boxcar down to LSC Communications on the west side of town.
If you aren’t familiar with this stretch of track minus the fact it is sitting on a dirt median it goes right down the middle of Franklin for about a half mile or so. The run down condition of the track, Street and surrounding scenery along with
Old NYC-era signals makes for a very cool scene.
Glad to have finally caught a move here!
