Digging furiously
The crew of a Wilmington & Western express passenger train digs furiously to free their little 4-4-0 from the fresh snow in which she has become mired, just short of the Greenbank Station. This was a 2011 photo charter organized by Lerro Productions and we had some unexpected photo ops before the charter even began. Eventually, a front-end loader was called in to plow the entire station area, and a diesel-electric locomotive was brought in to assist the train between photo locations. The show must go on, and as you'll see in subsequent photos, it surely did.
