NS 212
Title:  NS 212
Description:  I chose to head to the other side of the tracks for this shot of 212 heading past the E292 signal and the Seventh St. crossing at 7:20AM. The 8942 had one of the best P5s I've ever heard.

NS 36Q
Title:  NS 36Q
Description:  Eastbound 36Q with three more Catfish at 7:41AM. While I'm not normally one to complain about open doors and other related "distractions," I wasn't too thrilled to see this one come around the corner in perfect light with an open nose door...

NS W4A
Title:  NS W4A
Description:  After an incredible wave of traffic to start the morning (six trains in 100 minutes), things finally cooled down a bit. After a gap of traffic lasting a little more than an hour, W4A was next at 9:33AM. Part of this train's massive block of empty flats for Steelton can be seen in the background.
