Title |
Abingdon Branch Doubleheaded Train No. 201 leaves Green Cove. |
Description |
With the throttles barely cracked and the locomotives all but blowing smoke rings, doubleheaded Train No. 201 southbound leaves Green Cove, Virginia. The train will have to pick up speed, however, to take on the three-percent grade for the next few miles to White Top, Virginia. The second locomotive, Class M 396, was normally head in reserve at the roundhouse in Bristol, Virginia and used infrequently on the run. |
