Standard Railroad Zipper

NS train 21Z, aka "The Zipper" (Rutherford, PA to Chicago, IL, 63rd St., Park Manor Yard hotshot trailers/containers) flies through downtown Waterloo, Indiana on NS' ex-LS&MS/NYC/PC/CR Chicago Line with NS 8102, the Pennsylvania Railroad Heritage Unit in charge. The PRR was known as "The Standard Railroad of the World". The NYC era tri-light signals are still in service here. The Zipper was over on the #2 main passing other slower westbound trains.
