This is the removed diamond, laying just to the rear of where it once sat. Question is why did they not totally remove this used diamond, is there hope to see the old P&E back in service again?? |

P&E East |
Description: |
Looks like it has been a long time since the track has been used, mid- 80's I'm guessing. Sure are a lot of grain elevator's on this route, seems to me with the ethanol boom this line would be worth a whole lot??? |
