All rail traffic between #Asheville and #OldFort has been cut off since #Helene in 2024. #wnc
Per Bryan Marshall on FB: reconstruction efforts on the #NorfolkSouthern #AS-Line should be done by mid-April or early May, 2026. The #train line runs between #Asheville and #Salisbury. The section between #OldFort and #Ridgecrest was severely damaged by #Hurricane #Helene. #NC #ncpol #WNC
