I remember that! It was in TRAINS magazine, showed a photo earlier in the trip, and then that. I thought of that incident as soon as your PW 4003 photos started popping up, I'll be danged!

When did this collision happen? I have pictures of it a year earlier on the NYS&W 150th Anniversary Steam Special

The photo date is incorrect, but if you read the description, and read it carefully it states that this accidnet happened in JULY 1988.
