You really did well on a cloudy day. The background in each picture makes the image even better.

Top shot is a nice visual of two NS innovations.

Fans need to think up a name for that combination, like there are for poker hands. Except we may never need to use it again.

What's the stub end track between the trains in the first shot? Looks like a former main or siding?

It was one of the yard leads up until probably the mid 90’s.

Congratulations. That first shot is very nice. Hard to get used to the yellow cab on the NS!

Just my 2 cents but get rid of the black. Black is terrible and always looks filthy , you cant keep up with the cleaning so mostly they dont. Its a cheap paint job but it really looks grimmy all the time unless its fresh washed or paint which is rare. . That yellow schemme is really nice go with it or something similar. Certain colors on locomotives just always look dirty and unkempt . JMHO.And clean the graffitti and spend the money for the security.

The "bumper" in that shot becomes prototypical for a model layout - LOL
