Jason Bialecki General Very Nice! I shot theses (on RRPA) the day before in Altoona. 6/28/2011 12:30:13 AM
Jim Satterwhite General I must assume that these export models are of a different guage and that is the reason for them being shipped on flatcars. Great shot, by the way. 6/28/2011 3:47:54 PM
Yuri Vann General Those look like engines headed to South America with D-D narrow gage wheel configurations. The train is eastbound and the shortest way to South America is from the East Coast. 7/6/2011 11:55:46 PM
