Brandywine Valley (on Octoraro)
Pocopson, Pennsylvania
November 4, 1984
Brandywine Valley SW9 tows Wilmington & Western's ex-Pennsylvania Railroad doodlebug 4662 past the ex-Reading station at Pocopson. The doodlebug was on an excursion covering the Octoraro Railway when it broke down. The nearest rescue engine was the 8202 in Coatesville and it was dispatched to tow the dead doodlebug home. Despite the breakdown and the towing, the remaining photo stops and runbys were still held.
