IC 1020 / CN A420 |
| Description: |
IC 1020 is one of two units on the A420 today and I was glad I could capture it before it was tacked onto a cut. It's nice that after 12 years since the take over that one is still able to fine IC Black still around. I had to use a smaller file size for this image to make it easier to view. |

NS 2545 |
| Description: |
Before a large swath of storms would strike the area and wreak havoc later this day, NS 130 heads through Vance, AL under deceptively blue skies. NS has retired these former show ponies and venerable work horse for rebuilding in the SD70ACC program though NS 2556-2580 were put up for sale outright in January 2020. 2545 is seen passing one of more subtle landmarks to be found in Vance aside from the large intimidating Mercedes Benz plant. I decided to work this local lumber mills sign in on an otherwise random image. My other lenses kept fogging up internally but the 100x400 gave me no problems other than it was mostly over kill for the images I was taking but a lens is better than none at all. |

With the temp already hitting the mid 90's and a fully running a/c, my other lenses kept fogging up internally so I had to turn to the 100x400 which gave me no problems but was a bit overkill and forced tighter shooting but it didn't slow me down none and gave me a chance to be a bit creative. |

NS 2556 |
| Description: |
Once 80 strong, NS’s SD70 fleet has dwindled to only 4 active and 49 in storage (at the time of writing). With NS’s SD70ACC program having already claimed 27 of the venerable units. That along with NS having delved head first into PSR, older units will be first to be sidelined and stored. So the future for the SD70 fleet looks rather bleak and with only 4 active units roaming the rails that certainly could be an indication of things coming to pass. For now though it was nice just getting to see one personally if for the last time. |

NS 2556 |
| Description: |
NS 2556 leads NS 15T through Springville, AL. At the time of this photo the once 80 strong fleet of NS SD70's had fallen to only 53 with all but 4 in storage. It's doubtful that in light of NS's downsizing for the "precssion scheduled railroad" ideaology and the fact that SD70's are part of NS rebuild fodder that these will grace the rails much longer. |
