Nice. First one is a WEPX (Wisconsin Electric) coal train. These loaded on the MGA and ran MGA-P&LE-CSX-CNW. CNW pool units were common, and the power ran thru the whole trip.

 Like both photos.  But, I especially like the first; that big SD50 is really an intimidator.

Excellent photos.
Sterling looks a little different then 10-15 years before.

Very enjoyable, Bob.  Always liked the Seaboard System paint scheme.
