I like CSX as much as the next guy, but this is terrible even if it is a brachline.

Yep, that’s pretty bad track, LOL. BTW Railfan, where are you in North Georgia? I just spent the last week chaperoning at the 4H camp in Dahlonega…
Back in the early 90s, there were some branchline miles as well as some industrial spurs like that out here on the Phoenix Line. The conductor of the Magma Turn local had a standing agreement with the engineer that if a car went on the ground, to throw the locomotive into Run 8 and tear as much of it up as possible - because that was the only way it was going to get fixed.
Just north of Gainesville.
Hey, do me a favor please. Would you e-mail me and fill me in on the stuff you’ve went through as far as being hired by NS. I am looking at that for a future career. Thanks

Hey Hey Now we r all welcome to our opions I love CSX and there Sexy GEVO’s
Good Evening Railfan, I would go to the www.csxsucks web site and submit that clip, also send it to the CSX legal dept, and to what ever local TV outlet you are near. That might be a branch line but its that kind of negligent track condition that causes derailments and evacuations of towns!!! If you see any CSX people you might tell them about it THEN do what I suggested. Greg
CSX-DAN. Everybody knows that CSX is.Should we say as a pain in A%$ railroad to deal with.
Like NS you deal with easier then CSXT.
NS Are Ass’s to Railfans
CSX-DAN. I mean in busienss wise.
I have word that the track is deliberately like that, so it will stop any future runaway trains.
We have met the enemy…he counts beans!
hee hee hee -
i’ll have to remember that line - poor track conditions are a safety feature! damn, that’s rich.
