NNG Union Pacific 844 has problems Sunday in Texas

Sunday April 15th, 844 Rolls into Mt Pleasant, Texas, and when the engine crew set the brakes on her, a mechanical or electrical issue caused the diesel behind to keep shoving. 2 miles later the crew was finally able to get her stopped. Unfortunately, I dont know if anyone got video of her sliding through town, but it was bad enough to put her off of the trip. Flat spots were worn into the wheels, and the crew has now worked for 2 days on her with grinding tools to try to get it useable.

Here is a link to a video of her in Mt Pleasant as the crew is trying to fix the drivers.



Forgot the link, sorry
