Having injured myself in that nights softball game, I hobbled down to the tracks and snagged a video of the train as it crept through the Forester Ave crossing. Will upoad tonightYes. The CSX SD40-2 8828 has been on the NYSW for a few months now. I believe it was part of the equipment that was loaned to them from NS and CSX.

3014 on the point with 8828 and 2732 trailing with 16 cars. At Lackawaxen they picked up a cut of Gondolas from the Stourbridge Line.

No one even comes close with the demand they ask from with those units up those grades and terrain, never gets old! I missed last night's train by literally 2 minutes, and waited around for an hour and a half (not knowing I missed it) and my buddy's place only to hear a horn and see 3022 running long hood forward on WS-5 with four cars.
