Today seen NS Lehigh Valley Heritage ES44AC #8104 trailing 2nd on NS Westbound Intermodal 25V. So far for me seeing trains, this is the best train chase I've done. And it's all in 14 miles. Glad I have this engine in MTH Premiere. Now I have a story and maybe sometime a recreation scene on our layout.

Also this is my 17th NS Heritage Unit in person. All I have left to see is 3 more. And that's Reading 1067, Conrail 8098 & Original Norfolk Southern 8114.
Very cool and love the video, amazing you only had to go 14 miles to catch all of that.

Yea, because of him passing Rootstown and he stopped 2 miles after that. He waited 10 minutes in Ravenna I drove down Ravenna road which is mostly 45MPH got all the photos and videos in the video you see. Highest speed he got was 35 at one point, but slowed way down to about 10 to 15 at CP 94 east of Hudson so I got to Stow Road with about 3 minutes to spare. And to be honest, I never over sped the speed limit. I just got very lucky.
There is just something about see the real thing in person that you have a model of.
