 Location & Information Date Photo Credit
255 Superior MN  July 26, 1891  Robert Anderson
  255  Here is an unusual move for the
Crescent, #20. NS train #142 has
derailed about 15 miles north of Charlottesville due to a track washout. (Had #142 not gone on
the ground, #20 would have!
#142 was only 90 minutes ahead
of #20). #20 is now preparing to ease around the connection track
from the Southern Ry, to the
C&O at Charlottesville, where it
will proceed east to Gordonsville
and north to Orange, VA, where it
will get back on the Southern for the trip into D.C.		  May 1982  GR Harper
