Eastern Railroad Discussion > CNJ, ACe's, & Even an 80MAC!

First day off in over 2 weeks and I knew I wanted to spend the day doing train shots, regardless of weather. Snow? No problem! Was able to take advantage of a friend's spare bed last night so I didn't have to drive far today in the snow to catch some trains. Spent the day between Beloit and Alliance, OH. Just going to add to the couple threads from the region today - I was sure glad I was out there, regardless of the weather! Saw some great stuff! Heritage, Lots of ACe's and even a rare 80MAC leading stacks!

Thanks for looking and enjoy!

2) 65V with CNJ, NS #1071 leading through "the sag" but again... you can't tell!
3) 65V kicks up the snow in the video!

In this last photo, those are very different and unique new signals. What are the smaller, side-mounted signals used for?

And I really like the bigger signal plates, too--much easier to see against the background.

They look like cab signal clear to next Interlocking lights.

Great photos!
