Residents of the Town of Cramerton are still dealing with the fallout from a Norfolk Southern train derailment Monday afternoon. Story here from the Gaston Gazette.Fortunately, nothing catostrophic happened when over 30 train cars derailed in town - including highly flamable petrolium tankers. The small town of a little more than 4000 in Gaston County has a train line running through the middle of it - a setup that should sound familiar to Davidson residents.
Something to considder as supporters continue pursuing the Red Line Regional Rail project with its proposed increased freight traffic through the towns of North Mecklenburg.
