    Just recently in Morrisvile, Pa, a loaded hopper got free & went on a 2 (?) mile ride before running into a parked engine. The drawbar & knuckle of the hopper was detroyed- the eng TOTALED !! You guessed it - the eng WAS the CR 2943 "Spirit of Conrail" the loco will be pieced out to a local scrap yard.
