Looks Like Shreveport Has Moved to Ohio

Norfolk Southern train 23K passes the 859 at Rockport Yard in Cleveland.

The other day it kind of looked more like Shreveport, La., than Rockport Yard, Ohio, with back-to- back Kansas City Southern leaders. Norfolk Southern train 23K had a pair of Belle ACes and 145 had a solo GEVO.

I was only able to grab a quick nose comparison photo of the 23K and 859, but that 145 got a delay waiting for his lift to get worked. That allowed some after-work grabs in front of the tower. Sun was hard to come by, but I did get a little filtered light on the 4836.

CSX Y122’s power next to the KCS power of the NS 145. I sure wish the sun would have been out for that one.
