288 in Roanoke
A light drizzle falls as 288 waits in Roanoke after shoving back over three miles due to a tonnage issue. The issue was resolved in a typical railroad mannor with several calls to upper management who deemed the tonnage issue to not be an issue and the train should contiune on without dropping cars. Understandably the crew was not impressed, especially the conductor who was forced to ride the shove in the rain and then walk their lengthy train back to the head end. After waiting for dispatch, they were finally back underway.
