PREX 105
Title:  PREX 105
Description:  Gettysburg Railway (PREX 105) sits parked for the weekend on the ND&W mainline with an eastbound local from Woodburn in Cecil. Usually when the crews tie down trains in Cecil, they will park them on the LaFarge lead. But, due to a tank car and a ballast cleaner on the lead, I would guess they had to sit it in this location.

PREX 105
Title:  PREX 105
Description:  Would have been cool to catch this moving. Even though they have done very good work repairing the tracks from the MAW, Cecil still is one of the worst locations on the line. Would be cool to see a train leaning at a 75-80 degree angle. And, along with the engines unique paint scheme compared to the rest of the black and yellow PREX engines assigned to the ND&W, this unit has a very unique horn.

CSX 3166
Title:  CSX 3166
Description:  After shooting the ND&W and checking the signals on CSX at Defiance, we moved onto Sherwood and spent some time there. Our first train was CSX Q016, but my camera decided to act up right as soon as came, so I didnt get a shot of it. Thankfully, CSX K427 followed it closely behind which gave me a 2nd chance, since it did have almost the exact same engines leading it; a pair of GEVOs.

Track Work
Title:  Track Work
Description:  After CSX turned off quiet, we decided to keep continuing east to Hicksville. On a small siding outside of Mark Center, there were several pieces of track equipment. Had to take the shot through the side window, but it appears CSX is going to be doing some extensive work here soon.

CSX 877
Title:  CSX 877
Description:  CSX 877 sits parked with CSX Q315 just east of CP INDO outside of St. Joe. Suprisingly, this train was completely off-line. No crew and neither of the engines were running. That is kind of unusual for trains that swap crews here. Also, the symbol is interesting as well. This train is a unit sand train, and yet it is running with a manifest symbol. Hunter Harrison did quite a few make overs to CSX overall, which included abolishing trains and combining trains, which screwed up the symbol system.

KCS 750983
Title:  KCS 750983
Description:  CSX was still very quiet, so we decided to cut off towards New Haven and NS. After getting a bite to eat at Bob Evans on St. Road 37, we cut over to East Wayne yard to catch some action then end off the day. First, we saw NS 34N backing its cut-off into East Wayne yard. Little did we know at this moment that this train had quite the power at the head end.

NS 9426
Title:  NS 9426
Description:  NS 9426 sits parked with an eastbound manifest in East Wayne yard. Due to this train never having a crew in it during our stay, I never caught the symbol.

DCR 1551
Title:  DCR 1551
Description:  Fourth out on NS 34N is a brand new Delmarva Central MP15N switcher. DCR already has quite a bit of power since it started operations back in 2016, but I guess it doesnt hurt to have back ups.

Title:  NS 4004 (Black, Grey, Blue Stripe Sonic Bonnet!)
Description:  On the head end of NS 34N is NS 4004; one of the 5 (now 4) rebuilt GE AC44C6M units painted in a commemerative special paint. This is the 2nd time I have caught NS 4004, and my first time seeing it lead.

NS 5001
Title:  NS 5001
Description:  NS 5001 works the west side of East Wayne yard in New Haven. This unit, even though it has the capability, was not running on remote control power, but rather with a crew. I would guess it was the power on one of the Fort Wayne based locals today.

NS 6159, NS 3272, NS 2750, and UP 4???
Title:  NS 6159, NS 3272, NS 2750, and UP 4???
Description:  I have no idea why, but for some reason NS L96s power was put on the head end of a road freight that was building a train on the west side of the yard. I would guess that they led that train out of the yard, but I didnt stay long enough to see myself. Definitely would have been cool to see a pair of SD40-2s lead a road train!
