Comments on: CASO Sub Westbound NYC 3082 rounds the curve under the farmer’s wooden bridge at Clanbrassil, ON. in May 1968. The tracks are long gone but the roadbed is still visible on Google Maps.

Ahh, the good old days, when the New York Central emblem and name proudly adorned NYC motive power. Great memory, great picture, thanks for posting.

Referred to as a ‘jordan rail’. I don’t know where that terminology comes from.
Its supposed to keep anything that derails, upright, and you’ll find them at all overpasses/underpasses.

Bruce, that could be ML-9 as you say.

If thats an auto rack, could this be train ML-9 ?? ( usually very late afternoon or very early evening )

Yes Steve, and have a look at the hat. Looks like a checkerboard.
