Remarks & Notes |
A quartet of clean (which in SP's world meant "new") Dash-8s are in charge of one of the trains that regularly got new power. This train is on the Eagle Lake branch; whenever we heard the 'spatcher say "you're going out the branch" we knew it would be a turkey shoot due to the max speed of 25 mph all the way to Eagle Lake. |
