First off, on this Memorial Day weekend, I just want to say hi to my fellow vets; we helped make America strong, and will continue to do so (Congress willing)!
Now, on to the story!
Returning back from Farmingdale, SD70MAC 8663 rolls FEL31 through town on its way back to Uniontown.
Several members of the yard crew stand by to give the train a "roll-by" inspection as is passes through.
This profile shot of 8663 shows off its new logo. There are actually two different logos; one has a 'dulux gold' star, the other has a metallic gold star. Most locomotives, like 8663, are receiving the dulux gold star, while many of the freight cars and MOW equipment are receiving the metallic star.
Behind the hoppers on the head end, are the loaded tank cars of ethanol. From Uniontown, they'll head to points south for distribution.
Farmingdale Ethanol being an ADM facility, ADM-owned tank cars are common in this train.
Brad watches the train pass by as well. He, too, is trained to spot any problems with passing trains -it's his job!
