Epic!! CSX SD80MAC and NS SD70M-2 within 20 minutes!!

This is one of the nice things about liveing right next to a mainline. I heard a train go by so i looked out my door to see what it was and to my surpires it was a CSX SD80MAC. so i raced up to the nearest crossing because i saw it stop at the signals. i made it will plenty of time and while waiting i also saw the switcher a yard job and a NS train with a dash9 and a SD70M-2.

@allaboard321 I did a little digging. 1016 was either an ex alco rsd-12 rebuilt to be an mt6 slug. It seems SD40-2s or SD38S's (derated sd40-2s) are always this ones "mother"
