Delmar

Delmarva Central's SE-1 job rolls up on the town of Delmar, located in the middle of the Maryland/Delaware state line, behind a pair of ex-SP MP15ACs and a healthy cut of mixed freight. SE-1 operates on the southernmost reaches of the Delmarva Secondary between Seaford, Delaware and Hallwood, Virginia, the line's current southern terminus. Until several years ago, the Secondary extended all the way down to Cape Charles with a car float operation across Chesapeake Bay connecting the railroad to Norfolk. A subsidiary of Carload Express, which also owns the AVR in Pittsburgh, the DCR was formed in 2016 to take over the Delmarva Secondary south of Clayton, Delaware from Norfolk Southern. The Secondary was historically a part of the PRR which practically held a monopoly on the Delmarva Peninsula.
