The first train at Duplainville, WI on May 3, 2007 was this northbound general merchandize train with NS power on the CN, former WC line. |
We then drove to the north end of the yard and then turned on to Subway Road at North Fond du Lac, WI on May 5, 2007. There I discovered a CN freight crossing the road in the distance so we turned around and headed to the Highway N crossing about a mile north. Upon getting out of the car there, I spot headlights through the trees of a southbound train on the "valley line", headed by a pair of NS GE units. |
Here we see the NS unit as the BNSF train makes some switching moves in Cherokee Yard in West Tulsa on 7 16, 2011. |
I got this westbound NS freight at White Station Road in Memphis on Jan. 12, 2012. |
I found this at the west end of Southern Ave. headed east with a string of intermodal cars on May 25, 2012. |
At White Siding in east Memphis, I found this train waiting in the siding on June 18, 2012. |
Later in the day, I found this train west of the NS Forrest Yard along Southern Ave on June 18, 2012. |
This freight appeared and passed the other NS train on Feb. 16, 2013 in Metairie, LA. |
On Feb 19, 2013 on my way to Memphis University School to meet with a teacher/former student of mine, I found this train sitting on the passing track at White Siding. |
The first train of the day was this northbound "Triple Crown" that I caught south of the elevated in Wichita. |
