CP rail train drops welded rail
I caught a CP work train dropping ribbon rail over a section of the former Milwaukee Road in southeast Wisconsin. Here main #1 has some jointed rail dating back to the 50s, and CP is getting ready for replacement by dropping the rail in place, an interesting operation to observe from a nearby highway overpass.
