The "Fallen Flag Local" continues east
Title:  The "Fallen Flag Local" continues east
Description:  NSAX 8706 brings up the rear of the local headed by the two fallen flags, EJE 661 & IC 1497. A retired EJE caboose in the Griffith Historical Park wistfully watches as the "J" local passes by, probably wishing it could be part of the parade that day too!
