Whats up ith the CSX KD Sub?
Posted by DavidH66 on Friday, October 9, 2015 6:48 AM

I live near there and it's been dead quiet fo the last week or so. Are they doing major work on it somewhere? I've seen lots of red signals and I've sseen those yellow signs with orange stripes on the tracks too. Whats the deal? Construction? Repairs?

Help us out here - where's the KD sub?

Generic answer - maybe they're running the traffic at night so track folks can do their magic during the day.

I believe the KD Sub is the old L&N line south of Corbin, KY to Knoxville TN or thereabouts (LaFollette or Etowah?).
