Description:  Randy Hustoft was awfully nice during the chase, as he waves while some idiot takes his shot while driving down the two lane highway. I think Mr. Hustoft knew how awesome his leader was, being born over 46 years ago as the Pennsylvania Railroad #6056.

The Last One
Title:  The Last One
Description:  Norcross is where I would head back home, as the light wasn't getting any better and the day wasn't getting any younger. I had to work at 2230 and barely got 2 1/2 hours of sleep before doing it all again. Remember I hadn't slept from the previous night so I could come out and shoot this! It was all definately worth it though.

NS Yard Job Trains
Title:  NS Yard Job Trains
Description:  Normally the most boring railroad in Kansas City is actually something to look at today. On the left is an autorack transfer bound for BNSF Argentine from NS Voltz Yard behind a pair of SD40 family EMDs. The leader is Ex-PRR 6056, later rebuilt to Dash-2 specs, while the 2nd unit is Ex-CR 6399, originally built as a SD40-2. On the right is a yard job with High Hood GP38-2, Ex-SOU 5231. In an area usually dominated by wide nosed GEs, this is without a doubt the coolest group of engines I've seen on the NS here in a while.
