Southern's "H" line actually extended to Goldsboro, but the
property from Charlotte to Greensboro to Goldsboro is
owned by the North Carolina Railroad and leased to Norfolk
Southern.  Several years ago, the lease expired and NS 
refused to accept the terms of the new contract.  They threatened
to divert all Charlotte - Lynchburg traffic via the "L" line, Charlotte
to Winston-Salem.  Right.  No signals, two passing sidings,
and a five tier timber trestle crossing the Yadkin River.  Don't
know who blinked, but apparently the new contract is in effect.
