NS 22W Meets NS 21V
Title:  NS 22W Meets NS 21V
Description:  I still cant believe how amazing the world famous Horseshoe Curve in Altoona, Pennsylvania looks! Following extensive tree trimming in the spring of 2016, the entire view of the curve is visible, making images like this possible. On Friday June 24, 2016, eastbound van train 22W drifts downgrade towards downtown Altoona, PA on track one while westbound intermodal 21V climbs the grade on track two. The power for 22W was NS #9249 (C40-9W), NS #8785 (C40-9), and NS #1092 (SD70ACe). In this photo, you can see the power on 21V, which was NS #6782 (SD60M), NS #6980 (SD60E). NS #6304 (SD40E) and NS #6306 (SD40E) were on the rear. In this photo, the right side of the curve (railroad west) is actually 122 feet higher in elevation vs. the left side (railroad east).

NS 11V
Title:  NS 11V
Description:  At 3:13pm on Friday July 15, 2016, westbound mixed freight train 11V struggled up the mountain rounding Horseshoe Curve. The trailing unit, NS #9789 (C40-9W) crapped out shortly leaving Altoona, leaving leading engine NS #8436 (C40-8W) as the sole head end power. Despite having a helper set on the rear, NS #6322 (SD40E) and NS #6323 (SD40E), the train maxxed out at 8mph climbing the hill. It took the train 10 minutes to round the curve. Apparently, it made it to Bennington Curve and stalled. It was a huge train!

NS C90
Title:  NS C90
Description:  While this photo looks like a poorly photoshopped train coming out of the snow, I swear this actually is real. With NS #7204 (SD80MAC), NS #7201 (SD80MAC), NS #7200 (SD80MAC) on the west end, an empty coal train using the symbol C90 kicks the snow off the rails as it heads to the mine to load on Friday March 10, 2017. The train is making a reverse move off of the Pittsburgh Line to load at the Sonman Mine in Portage, Pennsylvania. To get to the coal tipple, the train operates push-pull style, and has NS #7209 (SD80MAC) and NS #7214 (SD80MAC) on the east end of the train. On July 15, 1940, a mine explosion occurred at the Sonman Shaft Coal Company. Sixty-three miners died out of the estimated ninety trapped in the mine after the initial explosion.
