For the first time in several weeks, the run north to Boonville, NY was made yesterday. The crew delivered a covered hopper to Bailey's Mill and switched out an empty.

A lot of snow accumulated since the last trip making for some impressive "drift busting." Also, many of the crossings had to be cleared of ice and hard-packed snow.

Here's a video featuring highlights of yesterday's move:
