Marathon
Watch You Crawl One particular location on the BIP is worse than all others in terms of track condition, with severe bumps and misalignments left and right. Here, BIP578 slowly, slowly pulls away from that section, but there are still plenty of cars that must finish traversing the large bump before they can move any faster than a mere crawl. If nothing else, the ratty trackwork does make it nice and easy to get ahead of the train, that's for sure.
Cleaning Up The Act BIP578s southbound train has re-entered the sort of rattier section of the BIP once again on its way back to Parkersburg. Along the Ohio River, their tracks are in pretty good shape and they can get some decent speeds, but large chunks of track between Rainbow and Waterford are in fairly rough shape. Things have certainly improved on much of it since the BIP came online a few years ago, but there's clearly much work to go seeing as our train has slowed to little more than a crawl. One crossing along Muskingum River Road seems to be the most well known, and there have been some clear improvements since some of the most popular photos of the spot from when the shortline was brand new, though it's only half of the picture. Just beyond the crossing and behind me, the roadbed has shifted in every which direction on seemingly unstable ground. Bumpy is putting it lightly, things don't look great back there. The dramatic shifts from heavy industrial area to almost midwest-esque scenery to the seemingly crumbling trackwork in the shadows of the trees is what drew me to the Belpre-Industrial Parkersburg. There's really a little something for everybody on this little railroad.
Patriots on the Overpass I guess there was supposed to be some kind of Infowarrior ride convoy, but we never saw that, just lots of yahoos on overpasses. Photo by Tazio
