The current (I think) Railpace has a good article on the current traffic on the DCR. I'd definitely recommend grabbing a copy (or I can put mine aside for you when I'm done).

I read that Railpace article yesterday. It makes it seem like they are doing superb. I have doubts about that. Other than stone trains they run down, I believe that the MDDE is their biggest customer.

I think Seaford was one of the most interesting locales on the Delmarva. The station and swing bridge proximity, a health dose of industry and yard ops, and the cut that sunk the railroad below the town plain, all make it a very model-able place.
