Todays pic for National NS Week is #058 at Harrodsburg, Ky on October 20, 2025. Ironically I shot the same unit on September 28 on NS #179.
We're on the 7 Tilden working the mine with a pair of U30Cs. The LS&I in the early 1990's was a great place to learn railroading and practice photography. Friendly visitor policies were still in effect but widespread fan attention had moved on. Cab ride offers were not uncommon and day shift crews were long on seniority, these guys had stories for days and would regale you with anecdotes all the way from Eagle Mills to the mine or dock and back.
They were true pros and knew every job on the railroad backward and forward. This trainman rides the steps of the 3000 along the pellet-strewn tracks headed for a joint with a cut of loaded cars. I'm grateful to have experienced this era before the passes went away and the fences went up. As usual I wish I had more pictures of these guys (or a DSLR) but this one has always been a favorite of mine showing some of what made this a special time and place.

Todays mundane wedgie is NS 18E at Harrison, Ky on September 17, 2025. This was the start of a hectic two mile, 6 minute chase. It then sat a Waddy for the next four hours. I was shocked how clean it was. Did it get repainted or just a good wash job?
