Well here it is. Not a very detailed pic, but it does show the N&W SD50S paint. I don't know where Terry took this pick, but we do have the 264 milepost as a clue. Anyone?
That's a Southern milemarker, 364... near Harrisburg, NC on the Peidmont Div... if you really want to get in depth, it's most likely taken from the Robinson Church Rd grade crossing, Given that it's two SD50S' on a freight train, at the earliest summer 1983 (the SD50S' were retrofitted by EMD with the angular 'free-flow' blower ducts in 11/82), this would jive, as the SD50S were used in pairs out of Roanoke at the time on any train (they were later used with C36-7s (i.e, one SD50S, one C36-7) on coal trains exclusively, then for a time assigned to marrowbon trains... they were in NS paint shortly thereafter. I have various EMD builder slides and prints of N&W SD50S', as well as quite a few detail shots of 6504 in NS. I'll have to get it online...
