Description

Poor condition of track about 1/2 mile west of the highway overpass west of tunnel No. 1, on tangent track, minimum wear shown on joint, better drainage of roadway, note the destruction of ties due to derailment. Each tie marked by a derailment has its service life shortened, even though it remains in service, a conservative estimate is a loss of $0.50 for each tie marked but left in service for each derailment, from a report by Harold E. Grier, 1967.
