EJ&E 675
Title:  EJ&E 675
Description:  EJ&E SD38-2 675 trails the light power going to get the State Line loads at Liberty. With m-day right around the corner, one has to wonder how long this view will be possible with orange power. Hopefully it will be like the DM&IR with little change for a few years, and hopefully the 38s won't be retired.
