Nice pictures Bob!

I was in Mount Holly the day before (1-30-05) and noticed that flanged wheels had cut their way throught the snow there. Wish I had my camera...

A quick trip to Camden gave me several examples of Shared Assets.

Upon arrival I saw this CSX/NS pair:

This pair occupied adjacent tracks in Pavonia Yard:

Then a train came up from South Jersey [actually, from farther South Jersey, since Camden is in South Jersey] with another CSX/NS pair:

I don't have a photographic example, but another CSX/NS pair powered this hump train:
