Parked Northbound Manifest
Title:  Parked Northbound Manifest
Description:  On Dexter Siding just west of One Mile Road in the rain. Some good power was on it today. The train to the right was what I really came over for, having missed the shot at Ash Hill due to stupidity. I got more than I bargained for by coming to Dexter.
