LV Flint Hill & Gulf Rds. - 1 of 5
Title:  LV Flint Hill & Gulf Rds. - 1 of 5
Description:  Kids, don't try this at home. This is a grab shot out the driver's side window from the Flint Hill Rd. overpass. We're headed west and this guy is moving and I'm trying to get ahead of him. The bridge is gone today.

LV Flint Hill & Gulf Rds. - 2 of 5
Title:  LV Flint Hill & Gulf Rds. - 2 of 5
Description:  Don't try this either - pacing shot along Gulf Rd. I'm gaining on them trying to get to the Gulf Rd. crossing before they do. LV 413 doesn't look too healthy - note the stain over the "VA" of VALLEY.

LV Flint Hill & Gulf Rds. - 3 of 5
Title:  LV Flint Hill & Gulf Rds. - 3 of 5
Description:  Made it. This is the Gulf Rd. crossing. LV typically ran their U-boats and late model geeps in three unit sets, and their older geeps and Alcos in 3 or 4 unit sets. Six units is unusual, so it appears the Alco trio had an issue (probably 413) and the GEs were sent on a rescue mission.
