Re: [CBQ] Re:Slag Ballast Color

[kohlj@bellsouth.net]

I was going to mention something else (note that I have never seen slag from 
the date that people are referring to)...

One gentleman recalled seeing the ballast "dark", almost black.

Since at that point in time you had a considerable number of steam locomotives 
belching black smoke, wouldn't it have stood to reason that ALL ballast would 
be fairly dark due to all the soot accumulated on it?

Cheers!
