East bound at Gould Tunnel February, 1979. Gould tunnel is on the line that now only runs from Mingo Junction to Columbus, a part of the PRR Panhandle route that was a pretty direct shot from Pittsburgh across the West Virginia Panhandle. It is now operated by the Ohio Central. [

Nice shot, Charlie, and it looks like the NS maintenance crews are very accommodating of respectful railfans, plowing out one of your favourite trackside locations.

2/26/1978 at Highland (Summit) Cut, MP 37 Fort Wayne line. The second unit is showing a little smoke from a rear traction motor. Probably just some oil on a hot motor after fighting the grade. [
