Conrail Shared Assets Operation - bdw9535 - 04-06-2011

Instead of placing the CSAO pics under the Railfanning NS or Railfanning CSX topics , started new thread.

Todays power for the CASO MI-21, NS 5278 and CSX 4428. Follow along as they switch out Espoma, a fertilzer plant in Millville, NJ. The plant is adjacent to the Millville Yard.

It took a total of 52 minutes to hook up to the outbound cars in the yard. Then to pull the two empties from Espoma and respot the two cars that had not been unloaded. Pull clear and attach the EOT and do the air test.

Thanks for letting us share the action Bruce. I think the fertilizer plant might make a great model industry.

Some great stuff there, and I really like the rib-sided covered hoppers. They seem to get so grimy and dirty, and make great subjects for weathered models.

Great pictures Bruce. I see in the photo there is NS SD45-2 #1705. Did you manage to get any photo's of that engine?


Re: Conrail Shared Assets Operation - bdw9535 - 05-14-2011

Both the pics with the SD 45-2 are NS 1701
