HIGH & WIDE PT1

A "High & Wide" movement is entering Hillsdale!

Rounding the curve into Hillsdale Yard is Extra 2029.

The train is led by Wabtec-painted GECX ET44AC demonstrator 2029,

The load is a transformer being shipped to the Port of Baltimore for export. The opposing track is clear to allow for the extreme overhang of the loaded car as it rounds the curve.

The massive load rides between the two halves of a massive Schnabel car.

Already moving slow due to the load, 2029 slows down even further, as it prepares to stop.

The "A1" end of the car.

The "A2" end of the car.

Caboose HDTX 4726 brings up the rear.

Next week, Extra 2029 will back into the long siding and tie down for the night.
