Hot day for Heritage CR 8098, Amtrak 822, FerroMex on Q249, plus
Author: ddavies

1 - Two FM Aces pull Q249 westbound at Shenandoah Junction, WV.
2- CSX 2046 pulls the W010 geometry train eastbound.  It would later come back west after turning at Point of Rocks (MD).

Q400 had a couple CP units second and third.
16T had a couple UP units second and third.
Amtrak 29 had 822 trailing (again) ... but at least it's stripes match the new baggage cars.  ;-)

2046 is a obviously a rebuild. That cab looks different than a spongebob square cab. Is that an upgraded design?

Something happened to the CR file, and I can't add a third image to the original post.  :-(

Same cab but the nose now has much-needed countersunk vertical grab irons.......
