AVR 3002 (2)         
The Allegheny Valley Railroad makes a visit to their sister line, the SWP for a 33-car coal train. Here the crew has just dropped it off by the Woods Road crossing in Owensdale, Pa. The Wheeling and Lake Erie Railway would soon arrive with two of their own engines to pick up this train. AVR 3002 SD40-3 has a well traveled past. Before it was acquired in 2008 it was KCS 627. Built as SCL 2030 SD45 in September 1971.
