Welcome to Moab Rail News
Keeping track of Rail activity in Moab, potash and Crescent Junction
Since April 2009, hundreds of
mill tailings trains
have departed the Uranium Mill Tailings Remedial Action (UMTRA) site,
often called the Moab Pile.
Many days each month, trainloads of radioactive soil head north on the Cane Creek Subdivision, better known as the Potash Branch.
To this day, activities on or near the Potash branch are still making news.
Whether it is dust storms, floods, changes in contractors
lax safety enforcement, there is always something in the news about the "Train of Pain"
or the Moab Pile. Below, in one place you can read all the news about the Moab
Uranium Mill tailings project.
