**WATCH IN HIGH QUALITY!** NS westbound empty grain train 51V squeals through the flange greaser at MP 240.5 as it climbs the 1.74% grade of the east slope of the Alleghenies on Norfolk Southern's Pittsburgh Line. This location about 1 and 1/2 miles east of Horseshoe Curve is accessed from a gated access road off of 40th Street, right at the apex where 40th Street takes a sharp turn west towards Horseshoe Curve. (WARNING: This video was shot on RR property, so trespass at your own risk! HOWEVER, just behind me there is a rock ledge which provides a better elevated view of this same location, off of RR property) http://www.photorunby.com
