Running thru Woonsocket Yards, horn blaring for River Street with
around 55 loads of coal
Bringing up the rear are the 2009 and 2216 pushing
Slatersville Branch on my left

The tradition of changing crews taking place!
Crews from PR-3 and Coal Extra mingle at the Valley Falls office on

These units brought in the coal to Brandon around Aug 19, 2008 one SOO Line unit and 3 BNSF Units Soo unit was 6055 while BNSF units were 8266, 9458, 6051.
BNSF #6062 & its train of coal empties heads into the west entrance at Blossberg. The train is split across the 2 sides of the continental divide here, with the locomotives & about 5 to 8 coal gondolas on the east side & the rest on the west side
BNSF ES44AC #6062, accompanied by 2 trailing units, a BNSF AC4400 & a BNSF SD70ACe, crest the divide at Blossberg after climbing a 1.2% grade up the west side.
Reading and Northern coal hoppers are on the 450. Concidering where these are coming from, I wouldent be surprised if they were pulling Coke from Lloydminster. But the cars say 'Domestic coal service', so I guess it's not so.
