SWP 2004, Broadford, Pa, 1-02-2015

            SOOOOOO close. We can hear the SWP locomotives coming up the valley out of Broadford. Train horns are blasting for the crossings, motors notched out for a run on the hill up to Owensdale, and then some young hotshot in a rollback goes ROARING past. I said, THIS AIN'T GOING TO BE GOOD!!! Sure enough! Brakes are locked, rubber is smoking, horns are blowing. The young hotshot gets it in reverse JUST in time to clear by inches. The funny thing is, the kid was blowing the truck horn at the train. WHAAATTTT! LOL
