Out of the Morning Haze
Title:  Out of the Morning Haze
Description:  Off on the distant morning haze I saw headlights, and figured I'd wait to see what was coming. Much to my suprise it was the BN-CP with three SD40-2s! Not only did it sound great, but it was a very welcomed sight among a sea of GE power. Lets hope this lashup stays together a bit longer. My only regret about this is that I didn't take video of it.

Description:  And heres what I came for, but not FOUR! L-TWI602 heads up the grade wide open with a lashup that will probably never be recreated! The last unit was added at Aberdeen, for what reason I dont know. But a pair of Swooshes and two others, complete in the Front-Front-Back-Back formation, was just amazing!
