NS H49 Helmin' on the HARL

H49 engineer and conductor are seen getting ready to depart Westbound back to Reading, PA. After the conductor lines and locks the crossover, its all clear. As they depart they gave me a little show with the old RS3L and mechanical bell which in an E-Bell era is much welcomed.

The power was
NS GP38-2#5355(Ex-CR#8209)
NS GP40-2#3061(Ex-CRQ#3386)

Awesome video! That 645 sounded sweet. Great RS3L / bell show too! What was the problem they seemed to be having? At 3:25 the shrug! LOL. Awesome video as always, great to see a CRQ unit!

Who knows, just some crew disagreements it looks like. If you like CR videos, wait till I upload my Blue SD50/SD40-2

3061 is awesome. Can't beat a blue 40 and an RS-3L.

Hopefully it will hang around for a little while more. It seems H49 is the train of choice for it. Its been slapped on here quite a few times since about last winter.

The most basic of moves is lock and line.

They pound that stuff into you during class.
