[@richardpowell7013]

My friend from Delmar was the engineer of the First Responders train that day. He's been w NS for 25years.

Cool!!

[@shawnpowell5876]

I like the part in black and white w the tank cars! I like the RS3 and just recently bought one for my h.o scale layout. Something about the older locomotives I like especially the MP15AC that's my ABSOLUTE FAVORITE locomotive! Thanks for sharing this video Fred! I'm viewing this from Delmar, Delaware.

Your welcome Shawn. Glad you enjoyed the video. I also like the older locomotives due to when I first started railfanning that was what was running.

[@shawnpowell5876]

My friend Joe Morris is normally the locomotive engineer for NS to do the run to the Clayton Interchange. Those PAN-AM boxcars are a neat addition to the consist.

[@fredeisen7401]

I meet Joe. What a nice guy!

Great video! Wish I had a railroad to railfan on that isn’t 4 hours away

[@fredeisen7401]

Luke we had to drive 2.5 hours to get there.

Do you know if there is a schedule for when trains cross the bridge over the Chesapeake and Delaware Canal?
