Are you sure you are on the right track now? |
Description: |
This train, was on the track to the right (the one we usually see outbound Amtrak on, the old GM&O). However, they had made it past the bridge, came to a stop, backed up, and switched to the UP side.........I'm sure it has been done before, but a first time for me. And you can see how the weather was this day! |
