Wheeling & Lake Erie 101

Ever see things and go "Did that really just happen?!?!". Well I felt this way for this, WE 101, 102, 108 all GP35-3 lead 78 loads of ballast down the Union Railroad Mifflin Branch. The train with WE 956 crew, WE Road Foreman, URR Pilot, URR Road Foreman will run around its train in the "Class Yard" and run it into three sections to Clairton so they can access the WLE yard in Clairton on the Clairton branch. This move is a result of a bridge on the branch being completely rebuilt. The train is currently passing under the Allegheny County Airport as one of many planes makes a landing
