Title:  WE 106 & 304 were scrapped right here.
Description:  Notice the same milepost 167 and the warning signs that remote controlled units operate here. The 106 was waiting to the left of this image for permission to enter the yard. They saw the 304 racing toward them and bailed off the 106 with minor injuries. This could've been so much worse.
