MER Clinic: Modeling the Durham & Southern

The Durham & Southern was a 59-mile short-line operating in the Raleigh-Durham area of North Carolina. It was primarily a bridge line interchanging with the original Norfolk Southern, Norfolk & Western, Seaboard Coast Line and the Southern in the early 1970s. In this clinic, the presenter gives an overview of the short-line and his design considerations while basing it on historical dispatcher sheets and other records for operations.
