Its January, Its 2001, thats really all I can say about
it.

Snow is falling in the valley as No4 takes a plow extra out of Cassville Yard |
 |
As she heads into Summit curve, the plow starts to dig in |
 |
The plow extra pulls up to the water tower at Roastree to top off her tanks |
 |
Ed get ready to mount the tender deck, while Irv brings No4 in on the money |
 |
No 4 hammers on up the line with the plow on her nose |
 |
Its really gettin deep by the time they get into the Big Cut |
 |
Rostree tank, tracks are cleared, no trains in sight. |
 |
Paul and Tiny discuss the run about to be made. No 6 simmers quietly in the backround. |
 |
Tiny conferrs with Tom McCormick about the days switching jobs |
 |
No1 simmers in the early morning sun, Ready for the day's work ahead! |
 |
No1 waits in the hole, while No6 brings in a string of 7 ton hoppers |
 |
No6 is spotting a string of loads on the main, then she will head for the service track while No1 shifts them into the head house |
 |
No1 grabs a hopper off the main gettin ready to shove it to the siding |
 |
No 1 gets ready to take a load up the hill to the coke oven head house |
 |
With the loads out of the way, No1 puts together a string of empties for No6 to handle back to the mine. |
 |
Two more empties get added to the train. |
 |
No 1 backs down the hill with a freshly emptied hopper. |
 |
Same hopper different view. |
 |
She pauses at the switch. |
 |
Theres snow on the mountain, as Cabin 01 round Summit curve on the rear of the plow extra. |
