I guess you can call this one lucky day. I knew the Virginian was on its way down from Cincinnati, however, around 9am I got a text from a buddy telling me NYC was at North Wye. A quick trip down to the Wye reviled that NYC was in the lead. After about 2 hours, the signal turns green for a crossover, and NS 117 with the Virginian leading pops around the corner.
Very nice indeed! That was pure serendipity, and you made the most of it photographically. Well done.
Most excellent! I had to go into work yesterday morning for a bit (death doesn't take a holiday or wait for a heritage unit they say) and by the time I got out of there, I knew this shot was gonna happen, and knew I wasn't gonna make it.
I figured you or Mr. Leathers would be out at the wye to capture this scene, and you did well! Carm and I chased them from South Danville to the state line and got some decent stuff that I will share later, but your shot has to be the shot of the day!
