This is the area next to the tracks, just north of the mine opening, near milepost 15. At one time the line was double track from Milepost 6.3 Avoca, to Milepost 17.8 Nay Aug. I'm not sure when the line was single tracked. This is looking north.
From what I saw exploring the line it was double tracked up to and past "Rock Junction" where the Jessup branch connected to it. Once it headed to the other bridge towards Elmhurst it was single tracked. There is a bridge near Elmhurst that was build for two tracks but it never came to be from what I saw.
