This is common on the pumpkin vine from Winston-Salem. It is not 
unusual to see surplus power being brought back to Roanoke on these 
trains. I find it interesting that they end up with so many extra 
engines in Winston-Salem that they need to bring them  back all at 
one time in a big block like that.
