YN2 Dash 8
After waking up this morning and looking for Q582-14, I found him stopped at Tunnel Hill waiting on track work ahead of him to clear. Todays leader was one of the rare YN2 dash 8 motors just released from long term storage. 7678 still sporting its YN2 colors and looking a little battle scarred lead the 11,000 foot long train up the W&A in the early morning hours. Once they got to TH, it was a sit for 6 and a half hours and play hookie. Anyways, it was great to see this old beast still running its keep well into 2021. Details in the photos.
Also of note, is the train was doing between 1 and 4 MPH all the way between Tunnel Hill and Graysville. I left the train there so im not sure if they kept that speed all the way to Chattanooga, but I assume they did.
