A NS Crew returns 14 units to UP Armourdale Yard from NS Avondale Yard in North Kansas City. 11 engines of these were C40-8s that had been leased to the NS for the past year or so, each sporting a really clean area on the cab where the "NS LEASE" decal had previously been.

Please excuse the awful lighting. It was near dusk and at this angle I was looking into what was left of the sun. This is the conductors side of a UP unit that shows being leased to the NS. And on this one they made sure to place that sticker right across the UP herald.
This UP unit was in the locomotive consist used by NS to bring a coal train to Hilton GA. Note the sticker over the top part of the UP herald denoting this as a "NS Lease" unit.
