Re: Concrete ties

On my trips overseas just about everything in Europe and South Africa had concrete ties.
As a side note to all this we were out shooting NS Freights on Monday and Tuesday this week, and there was a lot of track work going on north of Danville, KY in a couple of different places. Not saying they were replacing ties, but a lot of equipment and activity in 3-4 locations. Note to self-Shoot regular trains on the weekday when there are not any work windows for track gangs during daylight hours!!
