Engines On The Move
Title:  Engines On The Move
Description:  Soon after a southbound train passed, these three units took the main at Goodview and moved on up. The crew member on the back was probably a brakeman, indicating to me this crew was going to pick up a northbound train waiting on one of the sidings in Goodview (I saw at least two, maybe three cuts of cars that could have been the consist).
