"AMERICA" UNITS ON TV, PT1

Today, the 'America' units will be covered by the local news team, in honor of  Sept. 11...

A Norfolk Southern freight rolls into town, with two of their latest locomotives on the head end. Normally, the train would pass right through, but today will be different; this train will meet the America units -on live television!
The local television crew, set up and ready to go, talks with Norman as the units approach.

Meanwhile, the NS train stops for the meet. We don't want to block the camera's  view of today's stars!

The two trains are in the picture! Despite being on a hot west-bound intermodal -DBC47- today the America units will stop in Hillsdale for several minutes for publicity (propaganda) purposes.

As the train comes to a stop, all eyes focus on the head end. Norman and Chris take their places in front of 1776, and talk with the reporter, Herman, about the units, the AP&W, and about 9-11.
