Remarks & Notes 
To paraphrase comedian Ron White: "Hey man, huh, huh! How far will this train take us?"..."Clear to the scene of the crash."

WNYP dispatch notifies the ME-1 of a rollover on the tracks in Cochranton with only a few minutes to spare. A Penn DOT driver, whom blacked out behind the wheel, puts an early end to the ME-1's day as he displaced the rail as he rolled his truck over on the line. The train did not make contact with the truck, and merely pulled up to the crossing to wait until a decision could be made by management if the train could be walked across the affected area or not...NOPE! An 8 mile shove back into Meadville Yard.
