Wow! Black Alco, with bald knob and speed-lettered boxes for a backdrop.

I just google mapped this line...holy cow! Nice picture too.

Sweet! We don't get much on the WM here, so this is a nice treat to behold. If you have more, please do share!

Thanks, all! I visited the WM a number of times, but was often plagued with grubby weather. When I got to this slide, I thought "dramatic angle, but not much color". I even considered uploading it to RP as a black and white. I didn't linger for the 185, because an A-B-A matched set of black F-units was about to depart Bayard for Cumberland!

This line is currently being rebuilt as the George's Creek Railroad.

Great photo! Love it!

I came to this picture after seeing how crooked this line was in Google Earth. This picture is great, not only for the location, time period, and fallen flag locomotive, but also for the great documentation of WM boxcars. I'm sure a modeler of this line would love this.
