RVSC Coal Train |
Description: |
This is probably the longest train ever handled by the RVSC. It was probably close to 8000ft with two engines up front and a third on the rear. It is being shadowed on the ground by the RVSC crew truck. These empty cars are being stored on the RVSC. |

Not knowing where the coal cars were going for storage was problematic for me. I expected it to stop about here, but it kept rolling west. So I determined that they were heading for Mission. |

Description: |
The power has cut off and sits in the clear. The entire 8000ft coal train will be pushed toward the end of its ownership at milepost 42. This will block the Border Pacific's rail connection and the cars will have to be moved every time BOP and RVSC want to interchange cars. |
