Got a great lead on finding Norfolk Southern Heritage units in the Pittsburgh, PA area this past week to add to the collection.

I caught a glimpse of the Nickle Plate Heritage unit on a coal drag in Allenport, Pa while visiting family this past Saturday, 09/12/05. Now I gotta get one for my roster.

Nice pix! I've only been able to see the NKP unit when it was running with the 765 and the Penn Central unit as it was going through downtown Pittsburgh (didn't have camera with me).

Thanks for the photos. I think it is great that some of the railroads are doing this.
I wonder if Amtrak will do any thing? that would be interesting!
Neat catches!

Freight Train Jim,
Great shots - thanks for sharing
When we were up in central PA in July, NS seemed to be flipping four of the units every 24 hours or so. I ended up catching the C of G unit twice and N&W once. Just missed the Wabash and Southern units because of conflicting family obligations.
