Salisbury wYe: Norfolk Southern R.R.

Rail Fan Site for the Norfolk Southern Railroad

The Salisbury wYe is a Y-shaped railroad junction in Salisbury, North Carolina, operated through Norfolk Southern Railway's Piedmont Division. The Charlotte District, which is the main line with intermodal, manifest and Amtrak trains daily, connects to the Asheville branch which hosts manifest, local and coal trains daily.

All manifest trains travel to and from nearby Linwood Yard and it is an official stop for new crews. However, eastbound trains who are bound for Columbia, South Carolina, will stop at nearby Fulton St. in Salisbury and change crew and the train will hit the Charlotte District, and then as soon as they pass the Queen City they hit the Columbia District onto the R-Line and head south.
