Description:  They'll be stuck here until after dark. They weren't supposed to need a helper unit, until both 2108 and 1027 crapped out due to electrical issues, causing the train to stall ON Byron Hill. They were eventually able to get both of them to load again, but they weren't getting moving from a dead stop on the hill without help from the rear.
