NS 6728 (1)
Title:  NS 6728 (1)
Description:  This engine was reportedly in an accident with a tractor-trailer, according to the PittsburghChannel.com (WTAE). Their article was posted November 25. According to the article, a truck carrying a forklift was stuck on the tracks and the train was unable to avoid him. The accident was in Fredericktown, PA on Old Route 88. Hazmat was called, as apparently the fuel tank has a leak. No injuries were reported. Seen in the Norfolk Southern West Brownsville Yard. In the background is NS 5147 and Conrail 5328. Thanks to the Norfolk Southern maintenance crew for allowing me to take photos. This engine has now been painted black.

NS 3038 and 5147
Title:  NS 3038 and 5147
Description:  A weathered GP40-2 idles with a GP38-2 high-hood on mixed freight train here in the NS West Brownsville Yard, in perfect early morning light. Seeing a non-coal freight train on this line is a major surprise. Engine 3038 is former Conrail 3347 built March 1979. Unfortunately this was painted black in August 2011.
