Housatonic Railroad NX-12 at Sand Road  Contributor's Pick!       
With a trio of non-turbocharged, dynamic braking equipped Electro-Motive General Purpose "Geep" units as power, the crew of NX-12 throttles up #3601 as they approach the Sand Road crossing south of the village of Canaan, Connecticut with forty-one cars from the previous days NX-11 in tow. Once at Canaan Union Depot, NX-12s power will disconnect and wait for the crew of NX-11 to add six cars to their consist before making the run to Pittsfield, Massachusetts to interchange with CSX.
