H-GALNTW
Title:  H-GALNTW
Description:  The last move for the GALNTW today is to shove the FURX's into the T Yard. These will await a visit to the shop, and then most likely head for their lesser. Im relatively sure that these wont ever run on rails again, atleast in their current state.

M-DILNTW
Title:  M-DILNTW
Description:  Saying that this was the last thing I expected to see is an understatement. I knew that the first two Dash 2's have been togethere for awhile, but I didn't think they would come down from Dilworth with three other Geeps in tow. Plain awesome....

These Days
Title:  These Days
Description:  Stuff like this is vanishing from the rails for the last time, I believe. SD40-2's have become like F Units, ancient power that has given way to new power for the last time. No more "Well, there goes 300 SD40-2's to HLCX" or anything like that, the days of thinning the heard are ending, because plain and simple there just aren't any of these around in any number anymore.

CP-BN
Title:  CP-BN
Description:  My first CP-BN encounter for the quarterly swap boasts a pair of multimark SD40-2's. Another cool thing about this train, is today it took the 603 switch (right by the last TTX gondola) onto the mainline instead of leaving through the T Yard. This isn't all that rare at all, but still a nice change of pace. These two sure look good in early morning light!
