A LONG LOAD, PT1

Another oversized load rolls into town.

The train is lead by yellow-painted EMD SD70ACe demonstrator 1201.

As the train eases around the curve, the overhang from the load carries over the adjacent track!

After the train has passed the switch, Jason sets it for the siding. The train will then back onto the track and tie up for the night.

With the train tied up, a tanker rolls in to fill up the motive power.

The next morning, the train appears ready to depart... But notice the crowd around the load...

During the night, the support for the load failed, dropping onto the rails! Obviously, the shipment will be delayed -for a while!
