burlington of the flood waters.I was able to see that the area around the old 
underpass that i thought was the wash out is still in tact.before we left the 
airport there was rj corman pilot of there helicopter there and we got to 
talking and i was told the break is to the west of the old under pass three 
hundred feet long effectiving both mainlines.current river stage is 24.6 i was 
told they could not go to work until the river drops eleven feet.the are 
gathering equipment at south street here in burlington.rock is being delivered 
to a loading aera at the west burlington shops.also equipment and rock is being 
gather at gladstone so the can work toward each other.they are talking about 
using the geogre town dump train with the belt in delivery.does anybody know if
