Orphan Road

So after all that, the tracks are gonna stay where they are and the Dinner Train is coming back. I sure am glad we're keeping those awesome tracks in place:

The issue of the rails themselves may be more symbolic than real: A BNSF representative has said their only value is for scrap -- Sims said the company is actually adding $2 million to the sales price for the corridor to leave them in place -- and the aging, single track would need upgrading or replacement to bring rail transit to the corridor. County officials have said a trail will be costlier to develop with the rails left in place.
