HiDef: More Great EMD Action on the NS Harrisburg Line

A variety of EMD locomotives, young and old, can be seen leading trains daily. From SD40-2 pairs on trash, to SD70M-2 pairs on hot shot intermodals, and SD60's or SD70's on freights.

[mjet401bnsf]

how many trains a day thru there dude

[o00o00ozy]

Kinda slow, 40-45 Daily. It was a good 50 before the economy recessed.

[mjet401bnsf]

thats not slow i only get 40 aday

[o00o00ozy]

Well, what I mean is like 60-70% run at night, because the economy took away some trains that used to run in daylight, so it seems slow sometimes, but some days they'll be a lot during the day, especially during the summer, but if you sit out at night there may be 4 or 5 an hour...the record is 9 in an hour.

Hey Eric,

I don't know if your into model train or not but I just got a Atheran NS SD60M and it sounds great, it is quite similar to the real deal. I will send the video to you for you to see when it's up. Great video as always. Does CP have trackage rights through here?

[o00o00ozy]

Yes, CP has traffic rights from Sunbury to Philadelphia and back, they run a eastbound and westbound train every Monday, Wednesday and Friday at night.

[Hickler90]

Youve always been either an EMD or Conrail magnet, sometimes a whole lotta both!

[NintendoGX159]

NICE Video, 5 * rating and favorited.Lots of EMD Power and horn action.

That's why I like EMD, lots of variety and power compared to GE's Catfish and GEVOs. Boring.....
