Easton & Potomac trackage - red lines

Some minor maintenance today

The track gangs showed up again today and completed the installation of the new White Hall storage track and the realignment of the C&O interchange.

The signal maintenance crews went around and touched up the yellow on all of the manual throws and removed the battery from the main signal controller (computer). They hope that replacing the batter will correct the errors they are getting when the signal system is started requiring a couple of manual overrides to get the system running.

Also some construction workers were seen working on the foundation of the Easton Transfer Company in Brooke.

Now I have to decide what to move to next. Probably ballasting.



Below is a picture of the new White Hall storage track taken from the Easton Ice Company's roof. The next OPS session's C&O interchange cars have already arrived (the layout was also staged for the next OPS session today).
