Yesterday I was trailing the A Line from Hodges to Bulls Gap between 12:30pm and 3pm. There were no trains during that time. When I headed north to check out the area known as Whitehorne, I noticed there was a new switch being installed at MP84 on the TC line north from Bulls Gap. This is usually where crews switch out or coal trains are re-crewed for coal loads headed south or into North Carolina via the BL Line. I thought this was cool, and probably a much needed improvement.
Anyone else have information to share about this new switch?
