NS 9362 leads an eastbound intermodal up!the grade at Schaghticoke.
Title:  NS 9362 leads an eastbound intermodal up!the grade at Schaghticoke.
Description:  That double stack three cars back of the locomotive set concerned me. The Hoosac Tunnel has a clearance of 19 feet six inches, which isn't enough clearance for a "standard" double stack. But this one was obviously right behind the engines, so it was a puzzlement to me. Photo #1 of the chase. Photo location is about a quarter mile west of the Fisherman's Lane grade crossing.

Intermodal coming in to Eagle Bridge
Title:  Intermodal coming in to Eagle Bridge
Description:  The train came into the switc at a reduced speed. After snapping this photo, I gestured to the engine crew with my arms out and palms upward in a "What's going on here?" gesture. The conductor opened his window as they rolled past, and I asked if that double stack three cars behind was goi–d to be OK for the tunnel. He gave me the "OK" sign. Apparently this was what a breakfast chef would call a "Short Stack", i.e. both containers were shorter than standard containers% and this one was going to clear the tunnel with a few inches to spare. I reckon they did a good job of clearing out icicles hanging from the roof of the tunnel. Photo 3 of the chase
