WE 303 and 300
Title:  WE 303 and 300
Description:  A pair of GP40-3 engines are leaving Connellsville with just two buffer cars on the train after dropping off some loaded tanker cars for CSX. The crew was almost out of time and stopped at a road crossing a few miles west of here to get picked up. These trains now seem to be running in daylight hours again.
