Just as the NTWMEM pulled in to Pig's eye he lost the dynamic breaks in the lead engine (BNSF 7001 SD40-2), he was able to correct the problem during the time it took me to run to Prescott where I cought him at the river crossing just as he crossed the bridge he lost all power in the second engine (BNSF 3410 SW1500) and had to stop on the main to correct the issue causing some delays in traffic.

Did this train have a Santa Fe GE unit with most of the Santa Fe blanked out on the side? I think it was the third or fourth unit.
