Author: dwil89 As the 11A continues West, an Eastbound coaldrag emerges from the fog as it struggles up the West Slope grade....This was a long train...with only two road units, a 4 pack of rear helpers was working hard to keep the train moving....Dave W.

Author: dwil89 A going away shot of the drag's helpers...the train was crossing over from 2 to 1 at MO to head over the Mountain past AR....and shortly afterwards, a Westbound 25Z rolls through MO....and an Eastbound 10G stops West of MO to get a helper ahead....Dave W.

   Date: 11/11/07 19:05 Re: After snow...now fog...Sunday at Cresson..... Author: dwil89 All coupled on and tested...the 10G heads East....and a clean set of blue helpers shoves on the rear of the 10G....Dave W.
