Notchin' it up!
Title:  Notchin' it up!
Description:  Just as the Y111 was clearing CP285 we heard dispatch talking with a loaded grain train that was headed up to Fulton! This really suprised me, so I raced over to I-81 north and saw the G036 going through the wye. I stayed right on 81, to 481 and set-up for a shot north of Phoenix because I did'nt want to deal with the traffic in Liverpool and the village of Phoenix, and have them get by me. After waiting 30 minutes or so, something became apparently wrong, and here's what happened: the G036 stalled on the northbound grade up to Woodard. They likely had the crossings at Vine St and Old Liverpool Rd blocked for almost two full hours! Here we see four axle engine 6055 from the local B777 helping to get the heavy train moving again.
