| Title: |
NS 5259 |
| Description: |
NS local is stored for the weekend on the Watsontown Industrial Track at Strawberry Ridge after the H44 crew ran out of time. The Industrial Track has received some much needed upgrading from what it had been in years past, but light jointed rail is still in place. But with welded rails laying nearby, might something more be in store for the Industrial Track? |
