train @ harpers ferry station

another empty heading west---
**** "CSX Transportation (CSXT) will host a public open house to discuss the National Gateway initiative clearance improvements on four tunnels in Maryland including Graham Tunnel near Magnolia, WV; Harpers Ferry Tunnel in Sandy Hook, MD; Catoctin Tunnel in Catoctin, MD; and Point of Rocks Tunnel in Point of Rocks, MD.

This special project involves increasing the vertical clearance over the CSXT tracks through four tunnels to obtain necessary vertical clearance required to allow double-stacked, intermodal, freight trains to pass through the structures. These double-stacked freight trains will allow for more efficient movement of freight between Midwest producers and consumers with mid-Atlantic ports and world markets. The work is being coordinated with the Maryland State Highway Administration (SHA)."
