The start of my day. The atmosphere is still relatively cool, as NS 116 heads north at CP McCoy, passing a stopped southbound grain train. But the cool feel in the air wouldn't last long...
The entire length of a very short 179 can be seen as it comes rumbling through the yard at Emory Gap. 8700 HP seems a bit excessive for this application…
NS M12 (112 Extra) heads north on the K&O approaching East Siding, behind a pair of elephant style Dash 9s. 111 south is waiting in the siding just ahead for him to clear.
A pair of SD70 series widecabs team up, as they hustle stack train 295 south at McCoy. The crew had these big EMDs under some heavy throttle, and they sure sounded sweet!
