In poking my way around Chattanooga, I found myself looking at the dead line in Debutts Yard late in the afternoon. It was kind of strange seeing power I thought of as "new" already heading to rebuild, or the torch, including these SD 70M-2s, that seemed to have had a short life on NS. Several did find their way to the NYSW.

About 25 minutes after Train 224 rolled though, D66 was ordered to proceed eastbound from Berkeley toward Luther. As soon as the engineer told the dispatcher "Clear at Ferguson" (meaning he was passing the signals near Whistle Stop Cafe), I raced over to Ferguson and Godfrey to get a shot of NS 9290 (a C40-9W) and NS 5345 (a GP38-2) hauling the train across Elizabeth.
