ABBU with NS power |
Description: |
ABBU, an empty grain move from the Port of Albany to the NS at Buffalo, rolls through Silver Springs just after New Years. Once on NS, it will run the old NKP to Bellevue OH. This was a lucky shot. I was driving home from Buffalo, coming through town and decided to check the signals. This guy showed up just as I reached the crossing. Some days you win. |

Old Southern |
Description: |
NS had a lot of Southern power on the roster, though it was starting to get repainted. One such unit was this GP 50, early in its career a hot shot powering intermodal trains from DC to Atlanta. Now its fighting the grades going to Binghamton. |

Elegant |
Description: |
One of the more elegant paint schemes in late 20th century American railroading was that of the Southern. It showed what you could do with a basically black paint job and little flourish. |
