W&LE 4001 Pittsburgh Junction 328 8/12/17

            SD40-3 4001 ducks under the old wooden McKee Road bridge at Pittsburgh Junction, Ohio, on Aug. 12, 2017. The bridge was removed in November 2021, though it had been in rough shape and closed to traffic years before I took this photo. 

Acting as a glorified shoving platform, the 328 conductor is on the 4001 toning radio switches and blowing the horn for crossings while the engineer is on a pair of CSX GE's on the other end shoving the train out of the Ohio River valley. Coming up from the CSX interchange at Benwood, they followed the river to Mingo Junction then took the P&WV west to Jewett, and finally east on the OHCR from Jewett for a handful of miles to the Nelms 2 mine north of Hopedale.
