Same locomotive doing the same thing what it does best. Only it's a prefiguring of another grab-shot two years later on a railroad whose lead locomotive whose will be getting a horse scheme in an adjoining state.

Yes indeed, that's why I'm filming as many of these Conrail painted units as I can, because they will be all repainted soon. NS has the most Conrail units left, as CSXT has painted most of theirs up, but anytime I see these Conrail units leading I'll be all over it, since they're going to be repainted

What I was saying It's GEC Alstom 6061 doing the same thing. but 300 miles, and 2 years apart. and in an adjacent state.

Excuse my misunderstanding, I though you were referring to the lead unit. The GEC Alstom 6061 is a rare find in these parts. I was able to get a shot of 1 of the GEC Alstom SD40-3'S in Montgomery, Al. on Saturday, GCFX 6076 & 3099 were coupled together awaiting their next assignment at Montgomery ( CSXT'S North Yard )
