WNYP 638 & Horses

One of my favorite pics from all the WNYP chases in 2019. A Northbound train with 34 Driftwood cars passes the horse pasture at Combs Creek Road in Liberty, just a few miles South of Port Allegany, PA on June 1, 2019. BP & I had a hard time tracking the train down this day. There was supposedly going to be a pair of light units running from Olean to Emporium where the previous days Driftwood Turn had outlawed. Hopes were high for a set of 5 Bigs on the Northbound train. Turns out the crew taxied down to Emporium. BP searched them out while I waited in Olean for a crew for the supposed light units. After BP found where they were I had just enough time to get down to Keating Summit to intercept them. This was before the madness started and I believe there were only 3 of us in pursuit. The crew turned at Olean and ran back to Emporium with sand to finish the day.
