A leased Norfolk Southern C44-9W and a Warbonnet C44-9W (which looks to be in very good shape) coming around the big fill in Westminster with an empty windmill blade train. The fill had to originally be built in order to cross over the Big Dry Creek. Building a fill was apparently less expensive that build a large (curved) bridge.
