Talk:Fort Wayne Line

Article scope
Unless I misunderstand things, the main focus of this article should be the Fort Wayne Line itself, which is the Norfolk Southern-owned line between Pittsburgh and Crestline. The former Fort Wayne Secondary can be covered in Chicago, Fort Wayne and Eastern Railroad. If necessary, the PRR history could be split off to Main Line (Pittsburgh to Chicago) or some such.

Porter Sub to Barr to NS Status
The article says: The final piece, from CSX's Porter Subdivision at Tolleston northwest to NS's Chicago Line, the former LS&MS in far northwestern Gary, Indiana, at Buffington, is owned by CSX with NS trackage rights, junctioning CSX's Barr Subdivision at Clarke Junction (also in northwestern Gary). Unfortunately most of that is abandoned, NS does use part of it coming from the Porter Sub but they quickly switch over to the Wabash old right away to access CN Kirk Yard. There is no diamond at old Clarke Jct, nor can there be a diamond because of raised CN realignment bypassing the Gary Airport. The section between the CSX and NS is abandoned in place.
