How to do a Cold Weather Track Inspection on the Cumberland Mine Railroad

Cold weather track inspections are vital and I will show you what all the things we look for in the track during the cold winter months on the Cumberland Mine Railroad. Cold weather can be very hard on track, specially when we have a freeze thaw cycle. Plus with the heavy weight of the train going over the track, things have a tendency to break more often in the colder months. So I try to do at least a twice weekly track inspection.
