SD45-2 LEADING! |
Description: |
Hearing the strange horn (when they had to sound the horn for MOW) made me wonder what this was, and to my utter amazement it was an SD45-2 leading a Stack train! I shot this unit while it hostled a few other engines around a few weeks back, but thought it went into storage with the rest of the 7 SD45-2's in the yard. I guess it didnt! |
