Heard it stop at Beverly on the scanner but couldn't get close at that point.    Even if you can get near the tracks through there, there's too much brush for a decent picture.   I saw a train stop here a few days ago but never saw why.   Today train 891 came rumbling through heading toward Sevier from Clinton.    Then T12 got underway again heading toward Clinton.

Apparently 891 was having trouble with an engine.  Heard them talking to the diesel shop.   Some kind of problem with 7615.  When I passed it just sounded like air was hissing out.  No idea if that was in any way related to the problem though.
