Title:  CSX 287 Needs A Shower
Description:  An AC44 duo(typical coal power) paired with a pair of ex-CR SD40-2's bring Q370 north. Apparently, rain seems to have fallen around the engine instead of on it.

AMTK 96 Pennsylvania
Title:  AMTK 96 Pennsylvania
Description:  #43 comes and makes a stop at Paoli 20 minutes behind schedule. The train's stop was a little bit longer than usual. If this was true at it's other stops, that could have been the cause of lateness.
