"48 clear 197"/CN on 68N/PRR NS 8102 on 688
Author: Forever-Railfan-45

Thought my hearing was bad this morning when I heard "48 clear 197" as I thought it was a NS freight clearing. Being 0735 in the morning I never thought it was Amtrak 48 the Lake Shore Limited; running just a tad late. The sun had just peeked over the horizon and she had three locomotives.  After this passed I decided to go for the NS 68N with CN power. Destination was Rockefeller Avenue in Clevelend with the skyline of downtown Cleveland in the background...68N is running on the former NKP trackage. In the background you can see the Cleveland RTA. The track that used to exist in the middle I believee used to be the Erie RR ROW. Corrections welcome...

Number ten is of the CSX K649, number eleven is of the Q166 and number twelve is of the DPU on Q166 and what I thought the most appealing part of the picture is of the younger woman that seemed to have taken an interest in railfanning; she was very mature and knowledgeable as well of the trains around Berea, Ohio. Very nice to have meet somone of teenage years that was respectable and had manners...
