UP 4815 |
Description: |
Though the units are not on the passing siding, the train is going to come to a stop between the turnouts on the former CNW Adams qub main. Once stopped, the crew is going to have a long wait. Not known to me at the time, but another train was ahead of this one at Oxford, also waiting. The wait would be for at least two hours. I never did see them move again that day. It is unknown to me the reason why the delay. |
