Pennsylvania railroad operator offers help on Warren County lineA railroad operator in Pennsylvania believes he can help turn around Warren County’s rail line. Robert Lowe, who owns Rail Holdings Inc. in south-central Pennsylvania, said he reached out to Warren County officials in recent days after reading about the demise of Saratoga & North Creek Railway. The railway has operated on the rail line owned by the county and town of Corinth for seven years, but announced in March that it was shutting down. Lowe’s overture was mentioned at a public Board of Supervisors meeting on Monday, and he discussed the interest in a phone conversation with a reporter Tuesday.
The rail line from North Creek to Tahawus that drew officials' ire when owner Iowa Pacific Holdings began storing empty oil tank cars on it could have a new owner. Denver-based Omnitrax late last week confirmed it wants to buy the rail line, as well as buying or leasing the rest of the corridor from North Creek south to Saratoga Springs, from the local government entities that now own it.
