Ore train at Woodbourne with SOO GP-38 leader last week
Author: jonjonjonjon

Here's a companion posting to my video from last week…
http://www.trainorders.com/discussion/read.php?2,3383032

This one also from Woodbourne, PA, showing an empty southbound aluminum ore train from Messina, NY to Baltimore leaving the joint SEPTA-CSX line between W. Trenton, NJ and Philadelphia to take the CSX freight line into Philly.
The bridge crossing the tracks (with the big graffiti) is the ex-PRR Trento cutoff from Morrisville to Coatesville, bypassing Philadelphia.
A SEPTA local was following the ore train from W. Trenton.

another nice one Jon ... you also happened to catch someone elses video equipment on the platform ... that switch could use some attention ie. surfacing, the way that lead unit was bouncing around taking the turnout

Thanks OOS - I think that SOO unit need some suspension work too perhaps.
