Footage of a doubleheader of locomotives crawling over badly maintained track on a former Wabash Railroad line, now the ND&W Railway. The uploader explains the track had deferred maintenance for decades.
Cited as a startling example of poor US freight track quality, usually in comparisons with Europe.
