Last train of the day, but very interesting! |
| Description: |
I apologize for this poor shot, but had to take it. What we initially thought was just an empty coal drag, was taking forever to get going after the crew change. We soon found out why, as the stuck some stacks on the back of it! Quite unusual for the Jeff City sub! |
