I wonder if they knew the headlights and ditch light where off, or where they meeting a Southbound?

Southbound Triple Crown had just cleared the yard when the OCS appeared.  Good timing since the Triple Crown would have blocked my shot from the Versailles Road overpass.

The gentleman on the rear (front) of NS 7 waved.

Reminds me of the first time they came to KY, on the Derby train. Both ditch lights where out, and only one headlight bulb was working. By the time they got to Louisville, everything was out..

The attached photo was taken by Paul Banks just after the OCS entered Fayette County with all the lights on.
