OIEL western connection
Title:  OIEL western connection
Description:  For a few days, there was UP power on the Tier. This was not that common. Conrail must have been really short at Elkhart for the western power to go this far east. Today is is returning, a CR SD 50 leading the ex MP general service SD40-2 and 34 cars.
