NS W series of trains
Author: rhotond

NS has a simple train numbering series with locals , system wide, regionals etc. Lately I have been seeing a W series (W9G and W3>) through Altoona. It almost seems that these trains are the combination of two trains most often with a DPU set separating them. Does any body know what these trains are and any listing that includes them

and R is extra 000s

Yes, there is a difference between O and 0 on NS symbolling, just as there is with CSX.
