NS 111 with one dash nine online had things backed up yesterday on the NS Louisville district.
Here it is leaving Jefferson county. They made a run up Waddy Hill and took the train on to Danville. I will eventually get around to uploading a video of this.

NS 223 had to wait behind them for a long, long, long time. Here they are pulling onto the main at Tucker.

I like the shot of 111.
Was the 2nd engine on 111 dead-in-tow or did she have problems en route?
My understanding was it crapped out going up the hill at Tucker. How it made the hill in Jtown which I have heard is the steepest grade on the Louisville district but couldn't make Tucker I don't know. Had everything messed up though that's for sure.
