Description
The engineer is laying on the horn for a grade crossing to the right OOF. But everyone in the small town of Richburg, South Carolina has known the train was coming for five or ten minutes at least. It just crested Richburg Hill, a steep grade coming into town, steeper in parts than the famous Saluda Grade. It took every bit of horsepower these little end cabs could muster to bring fifty carsup that hill. And it was loud! Those little engines made a lot of noise. But they made it up the hill and to even ground. Mission accomplished
