A746 Southbound
Title:  A746 Southbound
Description:  While this shot does not fit my standard composition policies at all, it is the first time I've ever been able to get one of CSX's first 25 SD50s in the lead in decent light after 10+ years of trying. These are some of my favorites, as they were the last new power ordered by the L&N. They were delivered to Seaboard System after the merger in 1983. Grab shot at Byrd St. on the way back to my office at lunch. Canon EOS-3, Ektachrome E100VS.
