The difference of 7 years
Had to dig up some old photos and came across this one, NS 52A heads south at Green in some weak sunlight on 7/2/2010. Flash forward 7 years (has it really been that long?) and all 3 units are now on the NS roster and have received Crescent cabs. NS 8305 is the prototype for the failed D8.5 program and numbered 8500, 5972 is now NS 6963, the GoRail unit and 5957 is now NS 7001.
