CSX 7755, 7491, 7781 |
| Description: |
A three-pack of helper engines have just attached to the back of this coal train on Track 3 (siding) at Green Junction in South Connellsville, Pa. This was one of several snow squalls on this cold, windy day. Winter has unofficially started around here, even though the calender still says its fall. |
