NS 33 & 34

[NW Mailing List]

Mike,

Not long ago I was talking to one of the R&T crew that maintains and 
operates the 33 & 34. I don't remember the exact time frame (maybe Gordon 
knows, or can find out), but the these cars test all main lines on the NS 
system once every (year, or _____) ?

During off time in Roanoke this same crew is continually working on the 
equipment, fine tuning the instruments, and making improvements as 
necessary. Occasionally you will see the cars making a round trip (such as 
to Lynchburg and return) to check them out to make sure its working properly 
before beginning an actual OR&TO run.

Jeff
