Which brings about a question. On UP's Sharron Springs Sub, about 6 miles west of Salina-MP 193 or there abouts, UP has recently added to the hot box-dragging equipment detector a, what I assume is, high-wide load detector. It's two telephone poles on each side of the track supporting a wire that runs up both sides & across the top of the right of way. If my decription makes any sense, is that what that is? There's no tunnels around here(or the whole state for that matter) so it must be for the bridges. Only thing is, that pretty much all that travels that line is grain & coal, not much use for a shifted load detector. <br /> Matt
