Nostalgia & History > The View From the Balcony.Date: 11/24/12 09:28 The View From the Balcony. Author: qman While already in the BN era, this NP SD45 was still carryin' her original number and livery. We were "pausing" just west of Aurora, IL. to let the suburban train (Dinky) dust settle before there would be enough room ta let us come through.
