The title says it all, in this video you will see 8 different road names including NS, CSX, UP, BNSF, CP, CEFX, GMTX, and SOO on intermodals, mixed freights, and garbage trains in South Plainfield. I was told NS 211 would have an all Union Pacific lashup so I got out to South Plainfield around 8:45 so there would be no way of me missing it. Well 211 didn't come until later on in the day but I got a nice catch on the first train, an NS C40-9W in an OLS paint scheme. I also got to see an SD45-2 on 18G which was a nice treat. This was probably one of my best days of railfanning yet, I have never seen so much foreign/leased power in one day.

@SusQ45 Thanks man, I honestly couldn't believe it when Q410 and 64J had unusual power. The SOO engine was the icing on the cake for the day, I stayed an extra two hours just to catch that train. Haha it was well worth it!
