LV 8104 CP LINDEN
W10 with the Lehigh Valley heritage unit leading crawls through CP LINDEN after cresting the grade of Attica Hill on September 24, 2018 at Linden, NY. The train had a difficult time getting to anything more than 30mph, even with a DPU unit. Not a surprise considering that it was reportedly 22,000 tons. The slower speed allowed for many more photo opportunities than would have been possible if it had made track speed of 50mph.
