We chased the Grainer east bound from Rook to the High Bridge.
Saw a lot of railfans and met some as well. Here is a preview of the chase.
I will post a large selection on ThePWVHiLine website in a few days.

Very good choices for your shots! The Mingo Creek bridge shot, after the tollroad was built, to get that shot, is that sort of a grassy open hillside that you climbed to be at about the level of the bridge, or did you take the road from the other side of the trestle?

Climbed to the top of the grassy hill next to the roadway and shot with a digicam. Might have been 20 feet below the roadway.
