Re: Team Track Industry - jhock - 10-11-2011 kamerad47 Wrote:Those containers are contaminated dirt, If you look around on you tube there are some vids of NS bringing those spine cars to the interchange. the Tyburn RR is basically a transload yard & they interchange with CSX & NS no real tracked , alot of tank cars & covered hoppers . There loco power is a 44 ton & 45 ton . Thanks for that, so just so I have this correct, are the containers being loaded or unloaded in the transload yard? If they are being loaded i gues they are going off landfill?

There loco power is a 44 ton & 45 ton . I don't thin they are allowed to put contaminated dirt into any land fill. I think it goes to a company that will clean the contaminates out of the dirt. The dirt is then used as clean fill, and the contaminates are disposed of in an appropriate manner. Re: Team Track Industry - lajry - 10-12-2011 During my stint as a conductor at Barstow CA yard in late '90s' all the dirty (oil) dirt under the retarders was dug out & sent back east. It was "burned" there & sent back "clean" to be put back. The retarders now air operated. Re: Team Track Industry - kamerad47 - 10-12-2011 The containers are loaded going to there transload yard in upstate NY . It all depends on what the contaminites are ??? Some of them were dried solids ( you know what i mean) from a waste water treatment plant, they go to a land fill . Re: Team Track Industry - jhock - 10-13-2011 I had a go at creating a truck for my team track based on the picture in this link http://www.mnjrr.com/images/IMG_1355[2].jpg Re: Team Track Industry - kamerad47 - 10-14-2011 NICE!!!!!
