Conrail Tribute Unit Meets Ex-Conrail Unit

I was out Sunday afternoon waiting for Norfolk Southern train 20E, which had No. 8098, the Conrail heritage unit, leading. Due to a rail train in Ravenna around CP 86 (Rave), traffic was backed up a bit. Train 16G showed up with one of the former CSX ex-Conrail SD80MACs leading and stopped close to MP 104 in Macedonia waiting for some railroad. Along came that 20E on the adjacent main, making for a Conrail heritage meet of sorts.
