AVR 4005 and 405 |
| Description: |
A pair of new arrivals on the SWP Railroad, borrowed from the sister railroad AVR. Here they are waiting to get onto CSX in Broadford and go east to Connellsville. A bit of color remains on the trees even at the late date of November 14. The GP40-3 and Road Slug are new to this site and further information on them is pending. |

Marooned |
| Description: |
An empty sand train of 80 cars and eight locomotives (SWP 406, SWP 4006, AVR 4005, AVR 405, CN 8813, CN 8942, CN 8897, NS 9886) coming to a stop at O&B Junction in Wheeler Bottom, Dunbar Township. The crew had to leave the train here because CSX was going to make them wait too long to get onto their tracks across the river. 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. |

| Description: |
An epic eight locomotive lineup of SWP 406, SWP 4006, AVR 4005, AVR 405, CN 8813, CN 8942, CN 8897, and NS 9886 that has just picked up a train of 80 empty sand cars in Lemont Furnace, PA. That was after they ran a loaded train down to Smithfield, PA early in the morning in the dark. SWP 406-4006 and AVR 4005-405 work together as slug sets, giving a rare chance to get both of them together on one train. |

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. |

| Description: |
A set of switchers are beginning their shift on the Buffalo and Pittsburgh Railroad in Butler, PA. Seen leaving the yard. Rochester and Southern Railroad #3807 GP40-3 has a very long history. Built as LN 4028 (GP38AC) in May 1971. Then became CSX 2158 (GP38AC), HHLC 205 (GP38AC), and VTR 205 (GP38AC). Rochester and Southern Railroad is one of many owned by Genesee and Wyoming Company. G&W also owns B&P Railroad which explains why these engines are here. |
