BB 12, 13 & 7 lead an EB mixed freight, returning to Staunton, VA |
| Description: |
These cars could easily end up in Harrisonburg! The BBRR picks up stuff from CSX in Clifton Forge and returns to Staunton with a few stops along the way. From Staunton, cars can travel to Pleasant Valley, VA. via the Shenandoah Valley RR and exchanged with NS's Chesapeake & Western. Cars are also exchanged in Waynesboro, VA where NS has a small yard along the Roanoke to Hagerstown main. BB 13 is also an Ex-PRLE-KCS GP38-2 rebuilt into a GP38-3 and wears the attractive BB colors. |
