Milwaukee 201 At Roxboro

Blair says:
"I need to get back to the Gap this fall. It's only been 40 years! But the railroad's been gone that long, so I shouldn't expect to hear a trio of orange and black SD40-2's in full Grunt mode moving train #201 past the elevators at Roxboro. I can accept that. But sometimes it's important to go pay tribute to the departed as part of your journeys."
August 29, 1978.
