UP 6297 is one of the last Southern Pacific AC4400CW's to be freshly repainted into Union Pacific livery and numbers. In fact, the tag on the locomotive still read "SP 335" on the scanners; however, the locomotive was literally painted a couple weeks prior to seeing this train.

UP AC4400CW 6297
UP SD70M 5039

That evening, loaded coal train 504 crosses 2-1 at Prescott with three EMD 710's under load pulling the heavy train out of Lebanon City limits. The coal in 504 is used for the cement plants in the Lehigh Valley, utilizing the Cement Secondary to reach the yard in Tadmore. This is one of the last remaining stretches of the forgotten Lehigh & New England railroad, which is otherwise used by the cement local: H74. This move is rare and sporadic at best, as the coal is used as needed via transload services, unlike a quick unload at power plant.
10:00 - 504 - Shire Oaks, PA - Tadmore, PA

NS SD60I 6742
NS SD70ACU 7265
8/07/16 - In a most unusual circumstance, an SD45-2 leading a road train is incredibly rare. NS 1703 and a couple of other EMD's in dynamics hold back a heavy 10N rolling down the grade at Robesonia toward Reading Yard. Notice the loud cab-mounted Leslie S3L horn, a signature of the Erie Lackawanna heritage.
12:00 - 10N - Conway, PA - Allentown, PA
NS SD45-2 1703
NS SD70 2539
