Sources and method

This tie has been permanently removed from service. Its former equipment and location are shown for historical reference; no present-day flow is implied. A rating describes the equipment; an operator’s posted directional limit, when available, is a separate operating value. The map point identifies a sourced terminal or crossing where available, or a representative connection point; it does not trace the full route.
