[quote]QUOTE: <i>Originally posted by rrnut282</i> <br /><br />NS provides all the inplant switching at the FWA Assembly Plant. At least 2 sometimes 3 locals stop and go up the hill to the plant. L90 seems to just go back and forth between East Wayne Yard and GM. Also several through trains stop and drop-off / pick-up blocks of cars as well. You're right, it does come in waves, as you can see four trains in Roanoke siding at a time, waiting on their turn or opposing traffic. <br />[/quote] <br /> <br />Well thanks, that pretty well describes what I've seen and heard. Any idea how much of all that was funded by GM vs the railroad? <br /> <br />Clearly much of it is ONLY to the benefit of GM, but just as clearly, not all of it . Much of whats out there is ONLY to the benefit of the railroad.
