Coal train DPUs
Title:  Coal train DPUs
Description:  I had chased the H train down to Baron and was returning home through Westville, when I looked over to see a TXUX train going south. There was no way I was going to catch the head end without a ride back to Baron, so I opted to get the shot of the trailing units across the pasture. A nice looking set of power trails south, giving the heavy train a push past some future steaks.
