On December 29, 2012, Kyle (TrainiacProductions), Kon (amk1786), Andrew (LHR26), and myself decided to chase NS Local H75 on it's return run down the Cement Secondary from Nazareth, PA to Bethlehem, PA, after which, the train would make it's way into NS Allentown Yard. This decision was based off the fact that NS SD50 5425, one of only nine CRQ blue painted SD50 units in existence, and one of only nine SD50s left on NS as well. We nabbed the train at 11 locations on this chase, with several near-misses along the way.

H75's full lash-up is NS SD50 5425 in CRQ paint, with NS SD40-2 3419 trailing. The 5425 has an ear-splitting RS3L horn as well.
H75 - Allentown, PA - Stockerton, PA and return

I hope you all enjoy the video!
