A short train heading into Connellsville with one boxcar for CSX. They kept the other boxcar as a buffer to pick up 20 tank cars from CSX. Two engines were on the rear. One might wonder why three engines are needed on a short train. It is because W&LE does pickups and setouts at various locations on a shift and sometimes more power is needed. WE 6387 is former LTEX 6779, BNSF 6779, and built as BN 6779 in May 1977. |
