Westbound Empties on the Grafton line, near the Allegany Fairgrounds in Cumberland, notable for its "Bright Future" leader.  I always liked that paint scheme the best.


My favorite railfan enjoys the rattle and clang.


A sideways picture of the yard switcher assembling a westbound manifest next to Canal Parkway in Cumberland.


Another westbound train of empties bound for the mines arrives at Mexico Farm Road east of Cumberland.


And Rigby howls along with the train horn as the WMSR crosses Cash Valley Road at Helmstetters.  I didn't shoot the front of the train... they were running their hand me down NS blockhead, which has yet to make it to the paint shop.  Although it does look like it has a lot of primer on it.  Maybe next time.

Hahaha. Same spot two weeks ago.

Your angle is far better.
