Re: Eagletree Lane, Huntsville, AL & crossing malfunctions

Must have been from the rust on the tracks, they don't look like trains have traveled on them in years. The tracks get use somewhat regularly actually. The HMCR runs on twice (once down the line, once back up the line) every Monday and Friday. Or poor maintenance, we have a line that is only used o...
