IMDB rating: 6.30

Plot: In a near-empty Northfork orphanage, Father Harlan gently tends to Irwin, a eight-year-old who lies between a dreamstate and death. As orphanage caretaker Harlan reads aloud about Northfork’s years-ago forced evacuation to make way for a hydro-electric dam, Irwin’s imagination takes flight. While a team of six men evacuate the last remaining citizens of the town, Irwin, too, invents a cast of characters to prepare himself for his own evacuation.

Why did Conrail remove one east bound rail, around the horseshoe curve?
Was Conrail that broke to remove it Do you think Northfork Southren RR Will ever re-install, and make it a 4 track main line like it was years ago?


Conrail removed the fourth track soon after its 1976 startup, as it was simply not needed. At the time there just wasn’t enough traffic to warrant so many tracks and thus it was removed to cut down on maintenance costs.

I suppose there is always a chance that NS could reinstate the extra track sometime if traffic levels would justify doing such but it probably won’t be any time soon.
