NS C42 heads east to Lewistown with 4654 leading the way.
A freshly painted GP59E brings up the rear of a light engine move heading east on the NS Pittsburgh Line.
The second GP59E rebuild to come out of the Juniata Shops leads the C42 local out of Altoona.
Heading back to the house with 17 cars for Rose Yard. The crew on C42 makes its way west with mother/slug set. The GP59E was rebuilt from NS GP59 4606/EMD 8.
Working the local are two of Norfolk Southern's newest rebuilds NS 4651 GP59E and the NS 611 RP-M4C slug coming off the mainline getting ready to work the sand plant.
