You may have noticed that the trains that run by Milwood have recently been extra generous in honking as they travel past our neighborhood at the Duval and Enchanted Forest crossings. We’ve received a note from Union Pacific letting us know that contractors have been on-site the past few weeks relocating fiber-optic cable along the west side of the tracks. Trains are blowing horns during daylight hours to warn all of the construction workers as they pass through.
For the next several months, UP will be doing this construction to lengthen the second track. Double track will be laid back from Parmer lane to the Enchanted Forest crossing. Many of you probably remember that this was discussed with the neighborhood during our Spring Meeting. Once we have more details on timeline for this project and other UP-related info, we’ll be sure to pass that on to you.
