Construction Progress Report January 18th, 2021
The High Line is now terminated in the Sioux City yard. Well, we have subroadbed to Sioux City, anyhow. The tangent shown as the righthand switch here is the continuous running loop which will connect this line to the main level. No track laid yet, but the interchange at North Sioux Falls now has subroadbed installed for the interchange which will be needed for continuous running. What will become the lower level staging yard at Sioux City, IA. Access on the left is from the High Line which will represent the [compressed] CB&Q lines in Nebraska out to Edgemont, SD. The line behind the yard will represent former MILW / GN lines north of Sioux Falls to Crooks, Madison, Renner, Dell Rapids and Morefield, SD. We'll be modeling these as operated by D&I Railroad, BN and local fictional shortline Morefield Southern.
