| Description: |
A train of covered hoppers going north at Bowest, led by the recently rebuilt HD40-2 combination of engines. This is not really the shot I wanted but I ran out of time because a portion of the nearby Sheepskin Trail had been moved by the contractors rebuilding the Bowest Yard. |

SWP 406 and 4006 |
| Description: |
Light engine movement going north at Bowest, towards CSX and Connellsville. It is a good thing they were not pulling anything because this is a going away shot and the light was best for that. The leaves have been stripped from the trees by days of heavy storms and winds. And now we get the nice weather. |

Up above the train the Sheepskin bike/hike trail runs along the hillside, which used to the the lead track for Western Maryland Railways Bowest Yard. |
