Train: NS 66D Engine: NS 9929         
Tense moments for the crew as NS 66D loaded synthetic gypsum train for US Gypsum's Washingtonville Plant has just clipped a vehicle at the PA Rt. 54 crossing about a half mile back. The train did not get stopped yet. Fast forward: the truck involved either did not stop, or drove away, so damage was probably minimal to it and minor to the left front of NS 9929, but emotionally hard on the crew, and a nearly 4 hour delay to go the last two miles to USG following an NS investigation.
