View of the ladder of tracks for the new intermodal yard taken from Raines Road overpass. |
These views show the earth work that is required to turn this rolling hill area into a flat terminal for loading containers in well cars. One of the current cranes shows on the north end of the current tracks for loading containers. |
Here we see the view of the new loading area from US78. |
A supply of rail for the project is along the connecting track from the hump yard to the Shelby Main in the foreground. A set of CSX units sit on the new connector track. |
The new Shelby Main for bypassing the hump yard, one time passenger main. |
This project is so large that it has its own batch plant. |
