Remarks & Notes

Fire retardent is poured on this dpu after blowing it's dynamic breaks. This train had a rough time getting things cleared after the fire was out due to confusion about whether the authorities were still around or not. The things that happen in small towns...but everything worked out in the end and trains are back to moving smoothly...for now...
