CN EJ&E & Iowa Division Connector
Posted by Sawtooth500 on Thursday, September 9, 2010 2:38 PM

Any new news on CN's attempt to get the land in the southwest quadrant of their iowa division and EJ&E line to build a connector? Are CN Iowa Division trains still going through downtown Chicago because there is no connector in that quadrant? Or are they backing up on the connector in the northeast quadrant?

Judging by the sounds of signaling horns, slow running and coupler crashing, I'd say they are still backing up on the existing track.
