[QUOTE]Originally posted by palmland: [QB] delvyrails - not all. Maybe 10 years ago the SAL mainline through downtown was removed and a joint line with NS was built to eliminate grade crossings. The new station was built on that line (refered to as the ditch.) So now there is joint operation over the track just north as well as south of downtown. It is very doable to operate from Charlotte to Colbumbia. The only hitch is, to continue south would require a short backup move to the wye around the old SRR station to continue south on SAL to Savannah. A direct move could be move however if you used the NS line from Spartanburg into town. If you wanted In Charlotte a new station will be built downtown (Transportation center). This has been funded and will be built. It's where the current Greyhound station is which ironically is where the origninal SRR station stood. The line splits just beyond the station for the cut off over to the line to Columbia and the mainline to Atlanta. [/QB][/QUOTE]
