Long Hood Forward in Bellevue

Norfolk Southern No. 6112 and Union Pacific No. 3539 lead a train in Bellevue on Oct. 12, 1984, during the early years of NS. The fact both units are running long hood forward might mean this is a local returning to the yard.

    Both N&W and Southern used to order their Diesels to operate long-hood forward into the 1980s, so that NS unit could actually be operating facing the proper direction.
