NS 8864
Title:  NS 8864
Description:  After a couple more hours of driving, we reach Sherman, KY where we catch a couple NS trains on the "Rathole". When we arrived it was very busy. Our first train is NS 25A with NS 8864 on the point stuck in the siding at Sherman waiting for NS 55G to come north.

NS 8873
Title:  NS 8873
Description:  Shortly after NS 55G, NS 147 comes south after a short wait in town. Its quite surprising how busy this line gets. If I would have stayed I would have easily caught 2 or 3 more trains, and if I wanted to stay until after dark, maybe 4-5 more. The sidings are crazy long as well. Its understandable why too, if Southern ran this many trains. on a single track. Now we are headed back to Lawrenceburg and the Double Tree in for one last night of rest and relaxation ebfore heading home.

CIND 2001
Title:  CIND 2001
Description:  Before we went home, I wanted to stop at Valley Junction, OH. A spot along the CIND/I&O joint yard just outside of Cleves OH. Id never been to Valley so I wanted to see if there possibly a CIND or I&O engine parked in the yard. I wasnt dissapointed. Sitting with a string of gondolas was CINDs Genset unit No. 2001.

CNUR 20 and MAW 16
Title:  CNUR 20 and MAW 16
Description:  Its sad to see that the line is still being used as storage for oil tankers. CNUR 20 had to have moved at some point for MAW 16 to get on that side of the yard, but CNUR is still in the same exact location it was a year ago.

MAW 4
Title:  MAW 4
Description:  Took this shot with permisson by a matinence worker at the yard. MAW 4 is being worked at in the shops currently. I also learned CNUR 5 and WBCR 6 have been moved to New Castle to work the only operable part of the line as of now. WBCR 12 has been sold and sent out west. Not totally sure where it went though.

CN 5605 and CSX 6985
Title:  CN 5605 and CSX 6985
Description:  Hearing on the scanner that the MOW was clearing up to let CSX Q360 and CSX J784 through the area. We quickly rushed back to CSX rails. We waited for quite some time, and never caught Q360, but we did get J784. Thanks to the friendly MOW crew for keying up both trains and seeing where they were. After lots of waiting the local came along and backed down into the yard, with some pretty sweet power.
