Description: |
Hauling 100+ car freights at what had to be close to 50 mph plus (recalling some pacing sequences) on right of way with scant ballast, kicking up the dust. Oddly enough there seems to be an abundance at this particular spot, I don't recall a (then) recent derailment here-abouts) Only 30 plus years ago already! |
