Description:  A late running P61 heads west through Salisbury on the westbound main with four old EMDs in charge. The top of Grime's Mill can bee seen above the 3459, but sadly it was destroyed in a fire a few days later. It was always a nice backdrop for photos of trains on the Asheville mainline.
