RE: Hamilton & Norfolk Multiplayer Run TONIGHT!

A little change to my consist.Power assignment has just added a cabbage to the rear of my train for the back up movement from the power plant to Parkersburg.The train has to go up to the plant to pick up and drop off passengers. And will lead with the cabbage on the point back to Parkersburg, making all stops.Here is a shot of the trainset on a stormy day.
