Re: 56 Years Ago Today - 493 and 483 on last Flanger-Spreader run

Along the last short section of paved road, getting ahead of the train is still easy
Reaching the wide open spaces, the flanger spreader train is picking up the pace
From here we are on snowy dirt roads and getting ahead of the train is becoming more of a challenge as the engine crews are setting a brisk pace
