OHIC Minerva Yard - South End         
For whatever stupid reason (all of Conrail's reasons were STUPID when it came to Minerva Yard) Conrail chose to tear out 2 through the yard, leaving a kink like this on both ends. I'm looking south towards Bergholz and Hopedale... That's 4 to my left, the Main to my right and 3 all the way over. 4 deadends at that little pile of ballast and that is 12 heading from the left and connecting to the main. You'll see other pics of this later...

Fred Stuckmann General They did that to the EL main in a number of places. Makes it expensive to undue. They did it with government money anyone else would have to reach deep to undue it. Call it their competitive edge, if you will. I state this as my opinion only. 3/16/2009 3:28:09 PM
