As a snow squall moves through East Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, the Union Railroad Job 95A crew brings scrap loads an slab empties across the Turtle Creek bridge with a trio of MP15's. The crew will proceed north to clear the next switch, then shove their train down the ramp into the US Steel Edgar Thompson Works complex.
