Amtrak 448
Title:  Amtrak 448
Description:  The "Lake Shore" running "left-handed" just east of Milepost 130. DS often "straight-ironed" 448 through CP 150 in Pittsfield if there was no other traffic around, resulting in this situation. He would also run straight iron through CP 123 in Chester, at the east end of the double track, which is rule 261/CSS, so he's not really running left-handed.
