Two aces now.......... |
| Description: |
This train originally had only two units on it, coming into Jefferson City......now we have three! They spent at least two hours at the crew change point, taking the lead unit from a following coal drag, and attaching it to this train. Without it, they might not have made the upcoming hill. Almost an 8600 ft train! |
