BERLIN – Freight trains are expected to return to the tracks through Berlin next month.
The Maryland & Delaware Railroad will resume freight service along the tracks between Berlin and Snow Hill as soon as a few final repairs are made, Mayor Gee William announced at a town council meeting this week. The service hasn’t operated in seven years.
“We’re all pleased to see freight rail service returning after a quite long and unexpected break,” Williams said.
Cathrin Banks, president and general counsel for the Maryland & Delaware Railroad, confirmed in an interview Wednesday that freight trains would again be passing through town in the near future.
