MMID Westbound Cement Train UBHF ( Union Bridge to Highfield, MD. ) passing through Rocky Ridge, MD. on their way to Highfield, MD. to interchange with CSXT, this was an extra 2nd section that ran in the evening when the light angles were best, going west the UBHF runs too early to shoot but maybe a few spots, but if they run twice to Highfield, MD the 2nd trip runs at a better time for better light angles. I spent 5 days visiting MMID & they only made 2 trips to the same place 1 time on Friday

William H. Davis Jr. General Yeah, the majority of MMID's business is cement, the largest plant is in Union Bridge, MD by the name of Lehigh Cement, there's 1 other plant in Thurmont, MD. They also run unit stone trains 5/14/2012 8:51:14 PM
