The first move of the SA35 after the big President's Weekend snowstorm was on February 21st.  Here the SA35 is laying over near Columbia Propane after clearing the line, the returning to Lakehurst to get the tanker cars for Columbia Propane.
The following Saturday morning, and CSX GP38-2 2798 is drilling DiNaso & Sons.
