Recorded 5/8/2024 at 10:32 am. I initially missed this 242 through Spartanburg, and kind of planned on not catching it altogether because it was just regular NS power. The BNSF D9W was added on in Greenville most likely due to NS 4630 failing on the crew. As you can hear in the video, the ACe sounded like it was working fine, but the C6M didn't sound like it was running at all. I was quite surprised when I checked the Virtual Railfan Spartanburg cam to see 242 having this leader. This was so unexpected, so I wasn't really mad for missing it. I was planning on coming down to Carlisle to see 243 anyway, but when I saw 242 stopped in the siding, I knew I'd still be able to get this BNSF leader on video. Nice engineer for the horn salute! Enjoy the video.
