Robert Anderson General I remember the first day of this operation. They started off with one of the big 6700 class Centurys. It spent more time rolling over rails at Red Wing CGW on the ground than it took for the roundtrip. It was not repeated and these lighter RS2s and S-class switchers were used from then on. Good shots Greg. 5/17/2018 12:08:24 AM
