Earlier this week Norfolk Southern announced the return of steam to NS rails. This will mark the first time since 1994 when steam has run on NS rails. In celebration of this announcement the August contest theme is going to be steam engines. Entries of all predicessors of NS are welcome. They may be in museums or in active service.

We will accept entries until the 27th and the poll will be posted late that night. Voting will be active until the 31st.

For the full rules of the contest see the rules thread that is stickied at the top of the contest board.

If it ends up being only two entries... they should both win! I do not have any pictures of NS steam. = (

Entry #1 Like a scene from the past, Eastbound 611 passes under the N&W coaling tower at Prichard WV. 1992. Jreb member Kelly Barnett is holding down the left hand seat of the J in this view.



Entry #2 611 tackles the famous Saluda Mountain in NC. Seen here about half way up the grade near Sand Cut. 10/25/93

Since we are getting down to the wire and have few entries this month those of you that have more than 1 can enter an additional entry (making it a total of 2 this month). I promise next month's contest will be something wide open for those of you that haven't been able to enter some of the more restrictive contests.

Polling closed just minutes ago, and EM Bell was the winner by the slightest of margins.  With the limited number of entries this month I am going to include the other 2 in the wall photos gallery on Facebook over the course of the next few days.

With one of the entries deleted from the board, I will work the other 2 in on the facebook wall this week.
