Viewing Album:  NS 811 with BNSF Leader, UP 4th, and V08 chase
 
By:Nathan Hall
Dates:2/28/2011 - 2/28/2011
Album Info:2/28/11, Chasing NS 811 with a BNSF leader and UP 4th was the goal for the day, but upon hearing V08 leaving Burkeville ahead of it, I decided for one shot of 811 and to chase the only train to run the west end of the Richmond District, and the fact that it normally runs at night made it better. To boot, the leader was Long hood forward, and the third unit was Conrail Blue 3406.
