Eastern Railroad Discussion > Not a Heritage Unit...Date: 11/29/12 16:50 Not a Heritage Unit... Author: dharris I'm up in Harrisburg for a few days in hopes of catching any of the NS heritage units. Saw two railfans who told me at least two of them came through the area today, both of which I missed. With my luck, this was what wandered in front of the camera instead. Came in on 34A- anybody know origin/destination for it?

Date: 11/29/12 19:00 Re: Not a Heritage Unit... Author: 1019X Looks like it now has a low nose, but that bell on long hood makes be believe it was originally Southern.
