QUOTE: Originally posted by FJ and G Waiting for my VRE train yesterday at Crystal City, I noticed the rail, made by Steelton, was 1940. Some replacement rails are sitting on the ROW, to replace those. I noticed the next track over had Steelton 2006 rails and the head of the rail was about twice as thick as the 1940s rails. This is the ole RF&P, now CSX, which sees dozens of trains a day, being the only coastal north-south rail corridor in the U.S. I'm surprised the rails lasted so long! Simply incredible! (I can try & take a photo this evening if anyone is interested)
