Eastern Railroad Discussion > Two NS Heritage Units and a Bonus in Two HoursDate: 10/23/14 12:49 Two NS Heritage Units and a Bonus in Two Hours Author: RDG630 Went to Emmaus, Pa today to catch the Virginian and NYC Heritage units. Purposely took the photos from the Fourth Street Bridge to kill a cloudy sky. First the Virginian passed on train 66Z, then the bonus train an empty ethanol 65E with two CSX units leading an NS unit, finally NS 20R which was led by the NYC Heritage unit. Thankfully the Virginian was given a bath at Conway

Bruce Date: 10/23/14 19:53 Re: Two NS Heritage Units and a Bonus in Two Hours Author: Gonut1 Not really. It is only because Frontrunner mentioned that the unit was filthy that it got cleaned up. We all should be very grateful for Frontrunner posting that the unit was dirty. Thanks Frontrunner from all the folks who managed to see and grab a shot of the clean Virginian today. You are just awesome!!
Oh! OK! I didn't see it but I'll get over it dirty or clean.

When heritage units terminate there, they usually get baths if needed. 1069 just went back and forth between the intermodal facilities so often they weren't just going to take it off and wash it. Those trains recrew and head right back off typically. So, be grateful it got stuck on 17G where it was yarded, they took off the power, washed it, and sent it back out.
