Title:  NS 6191
Description:  SD40-2 NS 6191, GP60 NS 7111 and a couple CW40-9s sitting in the siding with a loaded coal train waiting on a recrew while SD70M-2 NS 2689 leads another loaded coal train that is currently being recrewed in the yard at Alloy, WV. These trains will head over the bridge at Deepwater to head East on the NS Princeton-Deepwater District which is the former Virginian Railway. Note the interesting striping on the pilot of NS 6191, there are not many painted like this and it is very reminiscant of how Southern painted their SD40-2's, even though this particular locomotive is of N&W heritage.
