Team Tracks and Transload facilities are sidings use by local distributors, manufacturers, farmers, and other small businesses not directly served by a railroad. Because of their versatility, nearly any type of freight car can be on/offloaded here. Even passenger train head-end cars, maintenance-of-way equipment or military vehicles might be found on a team track. The possibilities are endless!

Show us what's being loaded, unloaded, parked, or exhibited on your sidings.

Perry Day dress rehearsals have begun at the Everett Team Track.

tttt-2020-09-01-2

Although historians have long since debunked the idea that Everett had anything to do with Oliver Hazard Perry’s victory at the Battle of Lake Erie, locals continue to celebrate annually with one of the valley’s most spectacular festivals.

Each September, residents gathers at the Community Park for Perry Day. The highlight of this event is the reenactment of Perry’s battle.

Organizers of this year’s event have promised the most spectacular reenactment in the city’s history. The entire battle will play out aboard specially decorated railcars with live fire canons!

Thomas - very imaginative story!  I like it!  

The local freight has set out  a Western Maryland flat car load of tractors on team track one.  Hughes Trucking, a local trucking company working regionally out of Patsburg, purchased these Mack and Kenworth semi tractors for their expanding business.   The tractors are unloaded circus style and the second photo shows me on my bike checking out the action. IMG_8132IMG_8163IMG_8173

Brian - I'll keep an eye out for your shipment   There's lots of military equipment waiting to be unloaded on team track one and two.  As soon as the semi-tractors are unloaded and the flat car is pulled from team track one the flat car loads of military equipment will be set out onto the team tracks.  Going to be a busy Tuesday for the docksider for sure!IMG_0820IMG_0511IMG_0513IMG_0500
