Viewing Album:  Rochester & Southern chase 4/13/2014
 
By:Dave Curtis
Dates:4/13/2014 - 4/13/2014
Album Info:A "last-minute" tip-off about a special move on the RSR prompted me to drop everything and get out for this chase. If I had been able to make a better plan I would have left the house earlier because I missed everything on the southbound chase between Rochester and Pavilion. The whole point of the move was to get a car with an unbalanced load from Rochester to Silver Springs. The train was restricted to 10 mph which made for a very easy chase going south, however, the light-power move back to Rochester was normal track speed of 30 mph.

RS-1 V

Description:  Here at Rock Glen the track crosses a private driveway; I'm guessing that the kids wait for the school bus in this little green building when the weather is bad.
