| For whatever stupid reason (all of Conrail's reasons were STUPID when it came to Minerva Yard) Conrail chose to tear out 2 through the yard, leaving a kink like this on both ends. I'm looking south towards Bergholz and Hopedale... That's 4 to my left, the Main to my right and 3 all the way over. 4 deadends at that little pile of ballast and that is 12 heading from the left and connecting to the main. You'll see other pics of this later... |
