Sunday Reflections - Lake Erie Land
Author: train1275

Sunday March 5, 2023
Sunny and seasonably warm, almost 50 degrees - more like a Fall day, than March
Vermilion, OH

Sitting down by the docks, just reflecting ......

1. NS 4491 and 1029 go east on the 28V.

2. NS 4529 and UP 8974 on 28M.

3. Train 268 heading for the Port of Newark with the colorful international containers; Power is NS 1122 and 1158.

4. The other side of Train 268 is the 269 to Landers Yard Chicago with NS 4427 and 1081.

5. 269's colorful containers as reflected in the Vermilion River.

6. Our old friend the L15 is eastbound with NS 4053, and a new loco, the 1840 replacing the "4077 M*A*S*H unit".

Always good stuff!

I do enjoy seeing 268 here in eastern PA with its colorful containers.

Everytime I see one of those new boxy coil cars I think, what the heck is that? And then I remember it is one of those new boxy coil cars. :)
The center bridge pier has collected a lot of floating debris recently.
Thanks for a sunny report.
Go

Nice shots as usual.  Keep'em coming.
For those who may be curious, COER is the Crab Orchard & Egyptian Railroad, a shortline in central Illinois.  It's also my favorite RR name.
