2/18/09: Norfolk Southern empty bucket 515 (Chase, MD  Shire Oaks, PA) costs down the hill as it curves through SO Interlocking in South Fork, PA on the Pittsburgh Line. SOMEHOW this train got a helper ahead at ALTO, and it JUST SO HAPPENED that my favorite unit in the Altoona Helper Pool the 3347, was to be the helper ahead for the 515. It was a less than beautiful day outsidebut its amazing how bright the day can be when blue SD40-2s are leading trains!
