Track Gang is en route!
CRI&P Engineering had construction crews out late Tuesday and Wednesday to prepare the ground (cork roadbed installation) between the Mississippi River and East Bureau. The crew completed their work shortly after 8pm this evening. Engineering has received notification that the rail train is en route from Maryland. The tie gang is expected to start work late Friday night and into Saturday. Signal maintainers have been scheduled to pull code line (main bus wires) tomorrow evening.
