The corn is high, and the smell of diesel exhaust is heavy as Western Maryland GP40-2 #4318 leads a sister B&O unit and two GP30s in the assault upon Sandpatch Grade. All three Chessie component roads are represented here, as the trailing GP30s carry B&O and C&O markings. Could #4318 once have traveled across Salisbury Viaduct, seen in the upper right corner? A lady never tells her age.
