TS _Illinois General Ooh, nice shot! Looks like a pretty stiff grade going on there. 2/12/2012 9:44:36 PM
William H. Davis Jr. General Thanks, it's about a mile worth of hog back, but behind the train for about 4 miles is another stiff grade north into Irondale, Al. I've seen some trains stall on the grade behind the vehicle train going north 2/12/2012 9:51:45 PM
