Get use to the traffic drop. We have it over here too and it is going to get worse before it gets better.
The good thing is that it affords railroads to get those capitol projects done while they have a downturn in traffic. That way they don't hold any of it up while working on the track. We just finished a massive tie and steel replacement project over here and just in time too.
I was through Victoria station in London again yesterday- another steam special- a rake of brown and cream Orient Express Pullman coaches hauled by a 'Battle of Britain' class streamlined loco. Very impressive!
