NS 4859 is on 10K at Ramona Road in Avon Heights, PA 8/10/2024. NS 4849 was built as BNSF C44-9W 4957. Male a note of the trailing engines fuel tank, the huge "coast to coast" fuel tank reveals that it is a former Erie Lackawanna SD45-2...NS 1701, Ex-CR 6655, Exx EL 3670. Some people call this area Myerstown, If I recall correctly, the railroad considers this to be Avon Heights. Some consider this area to be part of near by Lebanon.
