NS Dual Rail Gang - Week 47, Part 3

The W Line from Chocowinity to Aurora (25 miles) got new rails in November. The track carries trains four times a day and had been slowed to 10 mph since a derail for nearly a year. Norfolk Southern brought in their unique R-3 Gang, the only crew around that replaces both rails simultaneously. I call it the circus train. Click here for 46/1 and 46/2.
