"Mance Monster" .....846 axles!
Author: cinder

Yesterday, April 24, eastbound CSX Q or L370? had a whopping 846 axles and was led by seven engines. That makes this mixed freight a 201-car train.

The picture here is "High Green @ Dawn" at Mance, PA on the east slope of Sand Patch grade.

On the other hand, I hear a detector report this afternoon, "8 axles, 99 feet." Must have been a DD-40X.
