PASSING TRAINS PT31

Train ND39, the New York City -Dayton, Ohio intermodal train rolls into Hillsdale.
The lead unit is a late-model GE unit; ES44AC 9485.
The second unit is an even newer GE, Delaware & Hudson heritage unit 1990.
The train stops for a rare crew change; normally, the crew stays on board the entire run, but a derailment caused a lengthy delay, necessitating the crew change.
Once underway again, the train displays a load of HUB Group containers, as well as a few ex-STAX containers now owned by CSX.
A pair of Swift boxes are mixed in -riding in an FEC car which stands out among the TTX cars.
Still more HUB containers, in white and red.
As is usually the case, this train is long enough for two posts; see you next week!
