I managed to get into Halifax yesterday (supposed to have a meeting, that didn't happen) one day after Catagory 1 Hurricane Juan blew through. Significant damage (thousands of trees down , roofs gone, lots of sign and window damage, major wharf and waterfront damage at the harbour and unfortunately one Paramedic and one civilian were killed by falling trees). <br /> <br />There is still no power to most of the city, therefore CN RTC dispatch is extremely busy issuing authority orders for incoming/outgoing trains and for the various MOW crews and work trains carrying ballast to repair washouts etc. <br /> <br />What kind of damage did Isabel do to the rail infrastructure in the Carolinas and how long did it take to get things "back on track"? <br /> <br />Jeff
