Pacing N&W Train On The Cincinnati District (Peavine)

[kentcourtney]

This is an exciting video. I found my heart beating faster as the long-hood-forward SD40-2 headed it's train through familiar territory. A side benefit of this video is the time capsule view of the countryside - the houses - the cars - the businesses. This action footage brought me back in time. I hope other people who shot sequences like this will upload their footage onto YouTube so that the "VCR" era can be preserved.

Awesome video! I loved to see this blast from the past! SD40-2 running long hood forward is a classic most will never see again!

This route could be a candidate for heartland corridor projects.
