I'm sure you heard about the Military Base closures list that came out earlier today.
Very interesting that the US Navy has decided to close the New London, CT Submarine base. This could greatly benifit Kings Bay Sub Base here in Georgia by sending more subs there. St. Mary's RR along with the new First Coast Railroad serves the base and hopefully this will booster their business. There have been rumors going around that Kings Bay might be on the list along with Moody AFB (Valdosta), but both pulled through.
The navy also closed 2 big ship yards in Portsmouth (NH) and Pascagoula (MS). Portsmouth did a lot of sub work.
