@KSE828 The video was taken in the spring of 2007. The NS has a lot of coal branches down on the Pokey Division, and as to make back-up moves down miles of railroad. So they used a caboose to make these moves and the conductor stays in contact with the engineer. Thanks for watching. Jackmp294...
How long ago was this vid taken? I heavn't seen a caboose on a train for 10 years. Come to think of it, I heavn't seen a caboose on a train ever, in operation.
☺✌Ty Jack!! I'm a Big lover of All rail tunnels
and I had never heard of this one!!
A classic Pocahontas scene. Steve Bailey sure blew the horn! He always does! :D
That was him on the Conrail.
No, they are emptys out of Williamson, and more than likely, with the one unit, it may have been going to local mine, or down the Buck Branch.
