Well today was another sweet day to head down to the yard to see what kind of action we can see today.....When we got down to the yard we seen that a train was already made up from last nights train and this train had a surprise on it....Looks like the 3rd unit will be hitting the scrap yard today....I then walked over by the crew and asked them where they were going to take this unit...They said they were taking it to Jeremiah to the Biezsczak scrap yard.....We said well that sounds good...We will make this into a day of chasing the train and watching him take it to the scrap place....
We then got in the truck and before we left we took a shot of him getting ready to pull out of the yard
And a shot of the dead unit
Getting going now the train starts out slow with all the tonnage in tow
I then got out quick and shot the dead unit at the crossing
Picking up speed now the train is clipping at a good 43mph
Ducking under the highway
We then stopped at this one crossing and got him on the fly and shot these 3
Back on the main we catch him just about to cross over a lil creek
Getting ready to slow down as they are about to come into the small town of Jeremiah
Making its final bend before down the train throttles up one last time to get it over the crossing
As the train cuts away from its cars...We then race up to the scrap yard and wait for him to back down the siding to drop off this loco....Here we see him cutting the loco off from the train and leaving it sit in there scrap yard
One last final look of this loco before its all broken up into pieces
As the train moves ahead and gets ready to couple back to its train I shot this last shot of the 2 sister units along with the scraped one in the back
With the train coupled back to its cars...The train calls the dispatcher and gets a high green to continue on its journey
