On a wintry December 17th, 2020, I ventured down to PC LEETS on the Fort Wayne Line in my annual quest to get a good "blowing snow" picture. Such was not the case for most of the day due to traffic tie-ups at Conway, but the action was quite interesting.

On the same day as the departure of the CN EJ&E heritage unit, I missed the arrival into Conway of a rare NS 18A extended into Conway from Elkhart, Indiana. Even rarer was the power; one of CSX's 10 ST70AHs, and a UP and CSX GE. Mason (Addicted to Trainz) kindly agreed to share his catch of said 18A in exchange for my catch of the 67R, which was posted two weeks ago. I decided to pair his clip with a brief catch from my upcoming series of videos at PC LEETS on the FORL during a good snow. Stay tuned for more snow action starting in two weeks, and be sure to check out my other uploads, now every Friday at 12:00!
