Ten Hour delay |
| Description: |
The WC is delayed nearly 10 hours getting out of New Brighton today, however, at least the 1032 is leading out of town in good light. I almost didn't swing by here this morning, as I was interested in getting the Hugo Job. |

Rare Occurance |
| Description: |
Going out on the WC is a rare RDC that came from Alaska. This was a really neat sight. It was built for the NYC, and was the only RDC2 the NYC ever owned. |
