Hopewell Turn |

Hopewell Turn heads east with a big block of coal head out. The train worked from Crewe to Hopewell mid day, and returned later in the afternoon. This was the only non coal train I saw on the line that day. |

Back to Virginia |
| Description: |
ENRO departs Enola with the same power it came in with on ROEN. It was not in the yard long, just enough time to drop its inbound cars, then get its 103 car outbound train and get out of town. We see it on the flyover approach to Rockville. |
