NS Virginian heritage unit
Title:  NS Virginian heritage unit
Description:  Looking up at a lot of power as a coal train led by the Virginian heritage unit swings away from the old NS yard and heads toward the CIRR yard. The Hilton and Albany RR, a unit of GWI, now leases this line but NS power goes through on coal trains. The luck of having a heritage unit on one of these trains is amazing.
