Pave it again, rename it Cumberland International Raceway. Blast from the past.

That wouldn't be so terrible.....

David's name pops up a lot with these, when Dublin was closed it was rumored he was trying to buy it. According to Jim long they were going to try and renew the lease but was turned down. Interested to see who it may be

Are David and Ron related?

[Mason87]

As far as I know they're not.

[DoubleZero]

David and Ron are not related. Don't think Dublin will ever be for sale.

[Barbecueboy]

Thanks everyone....

[Mason87]

Yea I doubt it also double zero. That's what I heard was David was trying to buy it and Ron said its absolutely not for sale.

[DoubleZero]

Dublin is part of the (extensive) Taylor family property, and is adjacent to Ron's "Lu-Mil Vineyards"...they'll never part is out and sell it separately...the only chance for Dublin, and it's very slim, would be a lease.

I would hope nobody was related to Ron! LOL!

Pulling in at Cumberland, early 70s.

I love the old coaches. Thanks mudcat.

[Mason87]

Well I can confirm it's not David, talked to my dad today he found out who it was but cant remember his name. Lol old age sucks

That's the Lloyd Ashby #00 coach, usually a pavement car. Those sweet-gum trees in the background don't look like Cumberland.

Lloyd drove it, but wasn't his. Driven originally by Gerald Compton, and a time or 2 by Paul Radford, but owned and built by my step-father. And not usually a pavement car, always a pavement car. Won a bunch in Fayetteville.

Dale Klee "the junkyard artist" included the #00 coach on one of his calendars....

Ears to the rails, train enthusiasts. Could it be a Kentucky transplant now living in Wilmington? Check it out. Might want to turn this potential carp pond site into a real race track!
