I shot this from inside a Dash 9. Best nose-on shot I have ever taken so far. [img]
It is a HP S20xi Photosmart slide scanner. It was about $440 at www.buy.com.
Here's a re-scan from a negative of a GP38-2 rebuild. I have a new slide scanner that does one heckuva job on negatives. [img]
The "history" is that EMD and NS agreed to work together to test the F59PHI in high-speed intermodal service. With a lowered gearing ratio...
I posted two model photos of my F59I and SD70M to the HO forum: HO Model Forum Post (I would have put them here but thought I would get in...
My "F59I" is now 100% completed and can be seen here with its lovely red marker lights lluminated and is posing with my nearly completed Genesis...
Good shots, Harold. I plan on modeling one of those sometime. All I have to do (besides buying all the detail parts, etc.) is figure out the mix...
I have caught this same engine leading the same train up Erlanger Hill on two separate occasions over a period of almost one year. Go figure the...
It was requested that my boy make an appearance here. In the attached photo, he is taking a picture of an "undecorated" NS Dash 9 below our...
As with all other NS trains, the lead unit is usually a Dash 9. :( Typical trailing power for some reason is often a GP38.

It's not often you see this kind of power leading a Triple Crown train! Enjoy. [img]
Ask and yee shall receive! :D He is the shorter one on the right while the fellow on the left is a friend and contributor to my site. [img]
I thought I'd share this photo with the board (even though you all should be religiously checking my site <g>). [img]
You realize, of course, that that engine is a one-of-a-kind. It is the only non-Dash 9W in the NS 25th anniversary OLS paint scheme. All the...
Thanks for the plug, Harold! I have roughly 3,000 NS locomotive photos currently online. I have photos of all but one of the SD80MACs and am now...
The only sin NS committed was taking out the marker lights. I have no problem with them painting over Gonerail's exclusive "rust blue."
I fortunate that some track work on the single track mainline forced two southbounds to stop next to each other (in good sunlight no less!)....
The Colonel is correct, it is a direct reflection of the sun. Ironically, the train SHOULD have been there at least an hour earlier for better...
Well, the colors in northern Kentucky are below average at best so far. Some trees have turned (many have lost their leaves) while other trees...
