The original plan was to go to Altoona. But I found out yesterday morning that the Horseshoe Curve and the Railroader's Memorial Museum are not open year round; they're closed until the end of March. So that trip is postponed until April at the earliest.

Epic and neat catches Nick! Especially SD70ACe leader, Geeps with caboose, SD40-2 leader on NS Hopper Train, GP40-2 leaader, Massive NS 763, Southern Heritage Unit and LHF ex-N&W SD40-2!!!

[@TheNWClassA1218]

Thank you!

Awesome catches! A P5 horn on a NS Dash 9 really isn't unusual. There's quite a lot of them that have P5s. I actually like how quite a lot of the Dash 9s have P5s because P5s are really good horns. Also I hope you catch some foreign power while you're there.

Thanks! I know a lot of Dash 9s have P5s, but I still call them unusual because most Dash 9s have K5LAs.

There was a CN standard cab dash 8 leading 2 CSX engines thru there on Saturday, I have a video of it leaving the yard in Roanoke on my KZbin channel
