Norfolk Southern 8103, Norfolk and Western Heritage unit.

Got a heads up that the 8103 had just left Lehighton for Allentown. That didn't give me much time so I grabbed the video camera and shot over to Northampton, the tripod was already in the car. Not having the time to double check everything I wound up without the quick release plate to attach the camera to the tripod. I did have a suction mount in the car so I used that but it limited me to basically static shots.
It's amazing how fast news seems to travel in the railfan community. When I got to Northampton there at least 5 photographers near the old CNJ Siegfried Station. While the station is scenic the area is hemmed in by trees, shrubs and power lines. I opted to move somewhat south (eastbound by schedule) for my video.

Hey Chris, Just seeing this now (Sunday at 7:52 am), the word was it would probably be moving west out of Allentown yesterday afternoon. That would have put it through Macungie. I hope if it did move you caught it! The friend who gave me the heads up on this move hasn't sent anything else about this so I don't know if it actually did make a move yet. Good luck.
