How rare to see NS and Conrail blue but number is close by one number and more awesome and then see one NS and other still in Conrail blue. This was my highlight of day!!!

Ex Conrail and Oakway units make for a far nicer than usual powerset for NS freight 39G, here westbound through Bridgeport on the Harrisburg Line.

NS Northbound Grain Train 59Q pulls away from Aragon, Ga. aftes 1 hour & 15 minutes delay when 25J got stopped by a dragging equipment detector. Problem was a drawbar dragging on 25J Vehicle Train. Usually delays are not a good thing, but on this day we sorely needed the delay as 59Q ran too early for good light angles where we shot the train, otherwise we'd had to drive farther, also it was overcfst before the 1 hour & 15 minute delay & just during that time allowed the clouds to burn off some. Sometimes the railfan gods are with us & sometimes they aren't & I thank them for being with us this day
