Nah, that siding, or any other siding does not even come close to connecting to the track, (if there is one, LOL!) that the 643 is sitting on! It would take quite a few days, and at least a backhoe with a front end shovel to just grade the area where that track would connect, so would assume that the gon is just regular CSX trackwork. OH, wait, sorry, I think I missed your point, ahh yes, that gon maybe to pull up the rest of that unused siding, which streches back to where there used to be very busy tower, right across from the side of Creveli Chevy! About a half mile of fairly heavy rail that could be used elsewhere, or bring $$ in scrap, yes, that would be really "landlocked" for the 643!
