Rob L. <br /> <br />Good information. You know much more than I and I cannot add much to what you said but I have one minor correction for the grades. Having worked on the Aberdeen Division from 1970 to 1975, if my memory is correct, the eastbound grade on the Andover hill was 1.0 per cent on the old line, which was abandoned before 1970, and was 0.5 per cent on the new line. Before the old line was abandoned, which was before my time, I believe the old line was used as the west bound line and the new line, which was much longer in order to get the lower grade, was used as the east bound line. <br /> <br />Larry
