After making set offs at Nitro, NS 380 proceeds south at 'Kapok' on a beautiful and exceptionally mild, 60 degree February afternoon.

A new SD70 leads a Santa Fe and NS GE on a coal train.

Running long hood forward, NS 2532 meets the two Terminal reds while they double their train at Granite City Steel.

Eastbound over the Pope Lick Trestle.

Eastbound between Louisville and Danville. In the age of poor variety I'll take an old school SD70 with a standard cab Dash 9 any day of the week.

Normally when you think about ratty, rusty, faded out locos you think UP, SP, or CSX, but this SD70 seems to be an anomaly on an other wise clean looking NS roster.

Faded SD70 leads a 9 car gen freight 14G train through Abrams Yard on the way to Morrisville.

Westbound looking acroos field at train below mp 148 in morning light. With just a little snow left.

This may be the last "fence shot" at Bleecker with the old fence. The man who owns the property told me that he will be building a new one soon. The 2532 looks like it could use a new paint job.

Now that the bridge work crew has cleared, the MMEPBB heads westbound for Pine Bluff, AR.

It was the first real snow of the season and I found 498G parked on the main at Abrams. The fresh snow bounced enough light to add detail to the side of the train.
