WE 6386
Title:  WE 6386
Description:  After a day of on and off heavy rains, finally things clear up just in time to catch this 4-car Wheeling and Lake Erie train heading west approaching Bellview Road crossing. The two empty boxcars came from Closet Maid and the two empty tankcars came from Connellsville. #6352 brings up the rear. Next the train would head up the line to Owensdale/Everson to pick up one car from SWP Railroad. WE 6386 was built as KCS 668 in August 1976. Later became LTEX 668. Acquired by W&LE in 2013.
