U-ELUGAT0-01T
Title:  U-ELUGAT0-01T
Description:  After backtracking to this crossing South of Wolverton, I was still in a shock to actually be watching this engine lead this U train on the ancient Morris Sub. So here we have the 3444 rounding one of the few curves with the GN codeline still standing tall.

Through the RRVW
Title:  Through the RRVW
Description:  After getting hosed for about an and hour and a half, the dispatcher finally gets the Galveston, TX bound oil train through the RRVW's yard and back onto home rails. This wait was actually a much needed break as the sun was able to slide over for much more favorable lighting.

Keystone Pimpin'
Title:  Keystone Pimpin'
Description:  Randy Hustoft was awfully nice during the chase, as he waves while some idiot takes his shot while driving down the two lane highway. I think Mr. Hustoft knew how awesome his leader was, being born over 46 years ago as the Pennsylvania Railroad #6056.

The Whole Nine Yds
Title:  The Whole Nine Yds
Description:  Actually, it was 76 cars and over 10,000 tons. The 3444 and SD70MAC were busy all day putting on a smoke show, although this is a very tame example.

The Last One
Title:  The Last One
Description:  Norcross is where I would head back home, as the light wasn't getting any better and the day wasn't getting any younger. I had to work at 2230 and barely got 2 1/2 hours of sleep before doing it all again. Remember I hadn't slept from the previous night so I could come out and shoot this! It was all definately worth it though.
