Remarks: Two clips of SD80MACs at work. First clip shows 5 MACs on the NS C90 crossing Route 160 at Sidman, PA, as they head south on the South Fork Secondary, taking hoppers to PBS Coal near Central City, PA about 28 miles away. Second clip is probably the last video of NS 7215 in Conrail Blue paint. It now has a shiny coat of black Norfolk Southern paint. The clip shows a smokey 7215 leading an eastbound NS 650 coal drag through Summerhill, PA. Note how the 650 picks up speed when the entire train enters the mainline from the South Fork yard.
I saw the 7215 on Monday, 08/18/08 on another 650 coal drag....iit was not smoking, and, I have to admit, it did look darn nice in its shiny black and white paint!
