NS 234
Title:  NS 234
Description:  NS 234 approaching Ivor with an SD70M-2 and an ex-Conrail UNPATCHED SD70 Spartan Cab! This guy ROARED past me with an awesome doppler effect on the K5LLA! If only I had taken the time to adjust the ISO and shutter speed, but hey, let's face it, we all mess up sometimes!

NS passenger special!
Title:  NS passenger special!
Description:  An NS passenger special with a 5600-series rebuild and an ex-Southern high hood SD40-2 roll through Ivor! I've never seen a passenger train on this line! The horn sounded strange, I'm thinking that it was a Nathan K3LA. It sounded like a UP or BNSF unit.
