please wait...Translate to EnglishHey, there's gonna be some major work happening at PRR soon! They're gonna replace that old-school RRI with some fancy EI starting next month. Here's a rough plan for ya:
Upgrades:
1. They're gonna make it so the yard can handle 6 trains at once instead of 2.
2. They'll be sorting out the traffic flow on the new PRR-KSX line to make it all run smoothly.
3. Oh, and they're throwing in a couple more lines on the BNR route.
Construction Changes:
1. No more trespassing around Shankar Chitrayan - they're building a fence there.
2. They're gonna kick off work on platform number 5 and build platform number 6 by getting rid of the Goods Shed.
3. Say hello to 2 new loop lines with a sand hump!
4. Yard sleepers and OHE are getting tweaked to handle faster speeds on the BNR line.
Updates:
The CNI - BURN line is getting an upgrade to add a 3rd and 4th line.
Timeline: They reckon it'll take 5 months to finish everything, with an extra 3 months just in case anything goes wrong. They're set to kick off in April 2024.
As for how this all affects train services, well, that's still up in the air. Watch this space for more info!
