Train U TNDCXP1 26T With A Special Guest |
| Description: |
Train U TNDCXP1 26T --a unit oil job-- was stopped by the dispatcher while passing through Long Lake while on its way east. Leading the three units was a celebrity unit--the Norfolk Southern Lackawanna Heritage unit! At last I finally made my first NS Heritage unit catch. I wonder if the motorists on U.S. 12 noted it? (Note: I had hoped to get a photo of the front of the engine, but I had a pressing errand I had to do in Wayzata--I heard a train go through Wayzata during my errand run and when I came back to Long Lake, I saw this train had gone. I still got a decent shot, though.) |

A northbound unit oil train rumbles up the Midway Subdivision. I later spotted this same train stopped south of Northtown Yard, in the company of a unit gondola train which had preceded it. |

Should Have Waited A Second More |

If I had waited a second more, I would have gotten all three of these units on the point of a northbound unit oil train in the frame. |
