April 21, 2018 – CSX crews work on tying in the new track to the existing track at the north end of the current siding at Romney as CSX Q025-21 passes on the main at restricted speed due to the construction. The MOW crews are in the process of tying in the new tracks to the switches as the final phase of converting the siding at Romney and Nortonville into a two track main. From what I’m told the first scheduled traffic down the new track 2 should be on Wednesday, the 25th of April, if all goes well. – #jimstrainphotos #kentuckyrailroads #trains #nikond800 #railroad #railroads #train #railways #railway #csx #csxrailroad
