This weather is pathetic!!! Where is all the snow!?!?!? The signal bridge is still on hold. Additional final paperwork was faxed into Atlanta on October 7th. I...
Hi, Kris. I met two Canadians from Ontario at Cove this afternoon. They said they had 2 feet of snow on the ground when they left home. We need the white...

Well it's official. Central New York RR sub. of the New York Susquehanna & Western has leased the Southern Tier from Sparrow Bush to Binghamton. The lease is...
... Bush ... So is this a GOOD thing or not. Will it mean more trains and better upkeep, or does it mean NS has given up on the Tier. I read somewhere that CNY...
From what I've read in MHO it is not a good thing. To NS it seems as though the east end of the Tier is as dead as it gets. Since the Cenral New York is a...
This is no surprise to me, NS hasnt run regular through freight via the Tier for some time. This part of the Tier only generates an average of 50 carloads a ...

I just bought Athearn's RTR NS GP38 2943 yesterday. The box says GP38-2, so I'm wondering what the external differences are between the GP38 and GP38-2. ...
GP38's have longer radiator sections than GP38-2's. Also, the battery boxes have large hinges on GP38's that aren't on GP38-2's (BN does have hinged battery...
