WE 6989, 3067 |
Description: |
Heading west off CSX in Connellsville with an approximately 100 car train. It was too much to make the hill out of town, and the train stalled on the hill. Half the train had to be cut away to be retrieved later in the day. The waving hand belongs to new conductor Cooper, who is also a well known railfan around here. |
