Interesting set
Title:  Interesting set
Description:  A four unit set of power leads train 165 with its 51 stack platforms and 34 freight across the Harpursville bridge. The odd duck in this flock is the third unit, one of the GP 9us that generally sees only yard service. It must have been in transit to another yard, though its position in the consist would mean it was working.
