NS 119 |
Description: |
An SD80MAC and a beautiful church steeple comes to mind as NS 119 rounds the big sweeping curve at Cramerton. This locomotive is unique to the NS roster because it started life at EMDX 8000 then went on to become CR 4128. After the split up of CR between NS and CSX it became CSX 812 (later CSXT 4602). Then after NS traded some of there SD40-2s they got the remaining SD80MACs from CSX. So thats how it got to be NS 7228. |

The glow worm as they call it came by Charlotte Junction today on the point of P99. Color wise this is one of my favorite heritage units. |

NS 118 |
Description: |
NS 118 came by Paw Creek with a SD70 leading a new AC44C6M. Those C6Ms are rebuilt form standard cab D9s. While we are on the topic of rebuilds I saw NS may be considering rebuilding there SD70s in 2017 lets hope that is not true. |
