Re: Heavy Line

Mike is right on, I don't know why there is so little interest in the former Mainline.....perhaps because of the C&TS and K-36/7 over-exposure?

The use of heavy power East and North of and light power West and North of Gunnison is fascinating in its variety.
I worked out of two junction Loco Depots, the first on a Secondary Main and another on the MainTrunk which provided variety with 3 and 5 ways to go. A fellow who trained with me went North and spent most of his working life in the middle on the Main Trunk, he had either up or down, mostly at night, chain-gang I think you call that.
