MHWA 2456
Title:  MHWA 2456
Description:  The 2456 arrives back in Thendara. The 2400 had been hooked to the other end to make the move from Sabattis to Tupper Lake and back, since there is trackwork ongoing at Tupper Lake that prevents running around there.

MHWA 2456
Title:  MHWA 2456
Description:  Again, they slowed at Forestport to flag the crossing, giving me a shot of the 2456 next to the Forestport Great Stationhouse. You can see how, while the Thendara structure has a large awning on it's northern face, this one has an integrated freighthouse.
