Just kidding!
My first MRL "catch". I've missed a few over the years - either didn't have cameras with me, and certainly did not have one actually sit still for "portraits."
So, when Jerry Voss sent me a heads up that this one was trailing on the E-DONRWM and heading my way.. I was prepared to catch it outside my house in my usual spot.
Inside information however reflected it was held up on the main track at Newby, but already departed the generating station. So I figured I better catch it there, as the days are short and we were already looking at 2 pm.
I'm glad I did. A broken rail just south of Newby had all train traffic held up, with the head end of DONRWM passed the SSS Newby and the MRL in the trees. Today's H-TEAAMY is trapped right behind this train.
I was going to leave, but decided to hang out and take in the fresh air and glad I did: the rail repair was going to take longer than expected, so the crew had to back up to clear the switch and be relieved. This put the MRL unit in perfect side light, in multiple locations right next to the public highway.
