End of Track - Carborro, NC |
| Description: |
5569 and 4613 have arrived with a train of limestone for the scubbers at the University of North Carolina power plant. Only one locomotive at a time can use the stub at the end of the passing siding so they will uncouple to reach the rear of the train which will be pushed to the power plant using the siding on the right. The Carrboro station still stands to the right as a restaurant. |
