SWP 2002 winter (3)         
The rear help on a freight local train that is in the CSX yard dropping off/switching cars. Here the GP11 sits in front of Connellsville City Hall. The muddy Youghiogheny River is in the foreground. Taken from Crawford Avenue Bridge. This engine is a former Union Pacific 708 GP7 built in 1953. Also SWP 2002 was used in the famous "Unstoppable" movie for the locomotive on the excursion train that barely avoided hitting the runaway train.
