I didn't get a photo. A UP cab with a BNSF in tow headed south out of Orange, VA for Charlottesville, VA on NS tracks. Equipment was SD-60, D9-... or AC44... Just currious? Is there a merger I missed? Where they just lost and wouldn't ask for directions?

nothing new. Same here in MD with CSX track. in fact, a pair of AC units in SP Bloodynose decor seemed to be duing yard duty on a coal train they were about to take further east, with a GP38-2 (I think, might have been the 40) at the point, here in Brunswick.
