Re: (erielack) Concordance Map, rationale for track structure work

KenB, talking about straight-railed crossovers, commented:

Right Ken.   At least it moved. At 10-20 MPH next to the interstate where
the trucks were crowding 80 mph, scaring the crap out of the vacationer with
three kids in the back seat, but beating the train with a 24 hour delivery
schedule as opposed to "third morning . . . "

Speed matters.
