There's a siding about 2 miles long through Saluda and to the west so they could assemble the train as it was brought up in pieces. Only 16 gondolas of woodchips could be brought up at a time behind 3 Dash-9s and the trains could be longer than 50 cars at times. <br /> <br />I remember that there was a big "uproar" when they decided to end the 611 excursions. I rallied up my second grade class at the time and wrote a letter to David Goode, CEO of Norfolk Southern, to try to convince them to continue the excursions. I guess we weren't cute enough to convince him to let 611 keep on hauling. At least we tried.
