PASSING TRAINS PT36; MPC-91 PT1

Train MPC-91 (Manifest, Pittsburgh-Cumberland) rolls into town...
This is a daily train between the two cities.
A pair of AC4400's are in charge.
The first two cars are a trio of two-bay covered hoppers. the first two are lettered "NYC"; they are CSX-owned and are ex-Conrail cars. The third car is a Blue Circle Cement car.
A better view of the cars.
The next two cars are loaded centerbeam bulkhead flatcars. These two will be dropped off for delivery to Smitty Lumber.
A lone tank car is followed by conventional boxcars.
Four of the five boxcars are owned by East Erie Commercial, and are loaded with scrap paper. These, to, will be dropped off here, for delivery to the paper mill in Dale City.The rest of the train will be seen next week. (yes, you are sitting at the grade crossing while late for work!)
