Remarks & Notes |
This eastbound coal drag with a helper set on both ends of this PPLX coal train is ascending the 0.63% grade near the town at Mineral Point enroute to Strawberry Ridge. Even though the hike to this locale was around a mile the route was even tougher trying to battle through the 1-2 foot snow drifts in places. I'm glad I was able to get the pic. |
