NS 3189
Title:  NS 3189
Description:  Old-school SD40 sitting on the wye at Tipton with some Canadian hoppers. I have a sentimental attachment to this locomotive because it was on the day of this photo that I discovered Norfolk Southerns name. This photo was originally uploaded to Railpictures by my dad back in 2004.

LLPX 2040 in Branson
Title:  LLPX 2040 in Branson
Description:  After taking the scenic train ride on vacation to Branson, MO, I was in the gift shop and a heard a loud horn outside. Thinking it was probably just a video going on one of the TVs in the gift shop, my sister told a freight train was coming. (By the way, my dad and I are the only people in my family who have a train obsession.) I rushed outside and saw this former Chessie System GP38 with other leasing helper units leading a long freight train.
