SF 500
Title:  SF 500
Description:  Stored at the far end of the old DL&W yard is this EMD switcher wearing the colors of one of the old hometown railroads. Never a part of the Lackawanna's diesel fleet, the unit was acquired by the Wabash Railroad from EMD in 1953. Originally WAB 132, it would also work for the Norfolk & Western and Norfolk Southern. Acquired by the Steamtown Foundation in the 1980s as part of a trade with NS for former N&W 1218, the other locomotive in this trade being former NKP 514, it was given Lackawanna paint to fit in with the 1980s Steamtown theme for its operating fleet.

GMTX 728
Title:  GMTX 728
Description:  TJ and I hunkered down in Milton for the next spot. We waited and waited and waited, and for some reason the train never seemed to show up. My friend Chris showed up at the scene after giving him some info about today and we continued to wait a little longer before we decided to cut back into Cambridge City to see what the problem was. We saw that the train was stopped across Hunnicut Road, so we went down to the crossing and the conductor was sitting at the crossing. He said that the two engines were experiencing too much wheel slip making the grade into Milton, so an engine was being brought out of the yard in Connersville to come assist them. We began to follow the tracks south and barely made it south of Milton before we saw another headlight. We parked at Nickel Plate Road (how ironic), and after a couple minutes engineer Branden Bailey was bringing the green GATX SW8 solo to rescue the train.

GMTX 728
Title:  GMTX 728
Description:  We considered shooting the train in town but decided that we wanted a nice open field shot south of town so we decided to wait on the train at Nickel Plate Road. A little waiting went by and the three engines came by, still struggling to pull the long train. Never in my life did I think Id ever see an end cab switcher pulling basically a unit coal train. Everything was right for this shot, and this one summed up the whole day. Perfect.
