Railfanning Houston,TX 10/18/2015 with NS 8102, CSX, KCSM,CREX at Englewood Yard-Tower 87

On a hunt for NS 8102 (Pennsylvanian) Heritage Unit while it was in Houston's Settegast Yard I got the best picture I could get as it was buried behind other locomotives. I went over to Englewood Yard just a block away to Tower 87 (Settegast JCT-East)

Great catches Cole! Especially with the CSX GEVO, flag Dash 9s, freshly repainted Dash 8 with an interesting switcher unit, UP SD40-2s, NS 8102, KCSM unit, CREX GEVO, and others!

Thanks! I was interested to see that NS SD60E trailing between a SD70AH and a SD70ACe on the one train

[@MichaelRubenGonzalez]

I agree with Shawn

Good ol' Settegast

Back in 1967, after two weeks of OJT as a new hire on the H&TC [SP], I and another newbie and an old head conductor were assigned to work as a crew at Englewood. This was for 3 months because of some kind of settlement dispute between the SP and the union. It was actually good training for me and the other guy. I wonder if the creosote plant is still there? It stunk up the place when it was in operation.
