NB NS 344 |
| Description: |
NS 344 with UP 1943 in the lead, about to depart Dragon @ Petal, MS on NSs NO&NE district. I was only a few minutes from the house and a long time friend, Allan Williams from Valdosta, GA drove a couple hundred miles to intercept this train in the golden hour. Worked out perfectly. |

Hurricane trains. |
| Description: |
A day prior to Hurricane Ida bearing down on southern Louisiana, NS was in the process of moving trains north in anticipation of the hurricane. A good call, indeed. Hurricane Ida became one of the most devastating in US history. Pictured was NS 130 with NYC 1066 light engines about to head towards a train parked north of Laurel, I believe. There was two more trains behind this waiting to head north. |
