A few relatively short sections of the Victoria Subdivision have been upgraded to 100 Pound rail – that’s rail that weighs 100 pounds per yard. The heavier the rail, the heavier a load it can support, and the the faster that rail traffic can travel (at least in theory…).

The majority of the rail is a mix of 80 and 85 pound rail (129 miles), with only 11 miles being 100 pound rail.

No matter the weight of the rail, the train don’t run here anymore…
