History in motion
Title:  History in motion
Description:  In the age of trip optimizers, PTC looming, and emissions, its nothing short of a miracle to shoot an SD40-2 on a hotshot. And shooting a Conrail blue one at that is nearly impossible for someone off the NS's lines. But here, in 2010, on a frigid Friday afternoon, sun glints off the worn nose which still displays CONRAIL in bold white lettering, applied over 30 years ago in La Grange, on the SD40-2 trailing on the ZEMCH.

NS 3405
Title:  NS 3405
Description:  The P3 still adorns the faded and rusted veteran of its former Conrail SD40-2. The witches tower stands tall in the background as the sun heads for the horizon, and an end to a day which I was able to shoot this Conrail SD40-2 in Minnesota, on a Triple Crown Z, in 2010. Thankyou rail gods!
