18W's DPU. Endless string of empty autoracks. Incredible flange squealing. Glad one didn't climb the rail.

Back in Lynchburg now. One of the disappointing things about train 151 and sister train 66 is the habitually filthy, dirty windows. Prior to departure from Roanoke, I took it upon myself to clean my window. See it? Fourth one back
