NS Lurgan Line Action And More...
Author: ns1000

Hi everyone.

Since I spent Monday running errands, I decided to spend some of Tuesday doing some railfanning. The weather was nice except for a very cold wind. The only thing that was a little disappointing was the fact that it was a mostly GE wide cab day. But I had fun anyway and here is a few of my pics:

Pic 1: NS 211 at Chambersburg, PA.

Pic 2: NS 228 at track speed about to knock down CP62 in Greencastle, PA.

Pic 3: After NS 228 changed crews, it was ready to proceed south. Here it is passing the new signal tower at the north end of Vardo Yard.

Pic 4: CSXT D795 as it approaches Hagerstown, MD with an AC4400CW leading followed by a pair of EMDs.

Pic 5: NS 203 at Chambersburg, PA with a trio of Dash 9s.

Pic 6: NS 11R south of CP65. I barely had enough time to park and run out to get this pic. Who says railfans don't get excercise LOL!!!

Pic 7: Another view of the new Greencastle terminal. If you look in the distance you can see that huge concrete pad.

Pic 8: They don't have all the trackwork done at the south end of the yard yet.

Pic 9: Some drainage work being done at the south side of Hykes Road bridge.

Pic 10: I took this pic on a cloudy day in October. It is NS 11R at Chambersburg, PA with a trio of Dash 8-40CWs. It is not often anymore that you see this.

Pic 11: I closed out my day yesterday by taking our niece to see deer. Here is a VERY NICE buck. I apologize for the quality of the pic. I had to use the zoom on the camera with little light and be very quiet.

Thanks everyone for viewing.

Great shots!

Sure is D795, the green AGP covered hopper is a dead giveaway.

Some of the turns at the south end of Greencastle intermodal look pretty tight.
Thanks for sharing.
