Westbound R377 crosses Big Elk Creek as it approaches East Singerly on March 21st 1990.
Despite having run the Philly sub quite a bit when I worked for CSX, I didn't recognize this location initially as it is basically a tree-tunnel these days.
#6044 is looking a little rough, still wearing it's original Chessie paint; The unit narrowly escaped damage 10 months earlier at Gaithersburg when the Brunswick helper ran into the side of the Millville rock runner. #6044 was the second unit, while the lead unit #6047 suffered damage so great that it was retired from the roster.
