jim pastorius posted:The Strasburg RR brings NS freight cars in to their place for customers off the mainline and make $$. Whether the track would support that kind of a load, I don't know. the museum has a lot of heavy equipment so they got it in somehow.
As a direct result of their freight business, and the VERY heavy loaded freight cars, the SRR had a new, heavy duty concrete overpass built, in order to handle such "heavy loads". The empty/drained NKP 2-8-4 would be no problem at all.
