An odd mix of power for a yard job, this Ex-SOU switcher, lettered for NS subsidiary NPBL, is paired with an ex-SOU GP50.
NS 2409 working at the C T C.
One only one of 5 bought by the Frisco!
Switching a coal train
Three units switching on this now-defunct shortline.
With US Steel's Edgar Thomson Works looming behind it, three URR locomotives take the loads of steel slabs up river to the Irvin Works for processing. Canon 20D and 70-200mm lens.
Colorful and long gone. One of two units on the roster.
5 PM Brewery run
The morning yard crew hard at work.
The afternoon transfer job crosses the Rockville Bridge.
Now abandoned, chasing KCNW was easy, track ran about 6 ft from the road all the way!
A Union train creeps down the ramp next to the East Pittsburgh yard adjacent to Edgar Thomson Works.
Union 16 leads 3 other units and a short train north out of the yard to the bridge at Port Perry.
Can you say L-U-C-K? I was super excited when I realized I was going to get this shot, it had to be timed just right, as all three trains were moving.
