An incredible seven unit lashup - with six different paint schemes - crosses the Yough. A combined empty ore train and loaded SWP coal train account for the extra units up front.
Traffic is booming at the east end of Brewster Yard! A seven unit Wheeling 551 snakes it's way into the yard as another train waits for the main.
There are over 150 bridges along the old P&WV mainline. The tallest of which is Mingo Creek Viaduct at 190 feet.
A pair of W&LE trains spend a cold day in Rook Yard.
Train 391 departs the east end of Rook Yard behind the WE 3034, WE 4001 and SWP 2001.
Wheeling 416 set-off WE 3034 before continuing East.
This was the last solid black and orange powered trains I was able to photograph before the grain trains stopped running.
A quintet of W&LE EMDs roll west through farmlands as the MP 97 detector sounds off with "no defects".
3034 emerges from a grove of trees between Pawnee and Spencer.
A lengthy westbound led by five W&LE SDs rolls west towards Bellevue.
After a run across northern Ohio, 3034's crew heads for the yard office at Hartland, a small yard on the W&LE just east of Norwalk.
This was one of the nicest lashups I ever saw on a W&LE grain train. Unfortunately, it was also the last grainer that I photographed since this traffic is not currently running to Hagerstown.
