Well it's been about a month since I posted this question. So today I caught one with all three units running long hood forward. 1-12-02 train Q15 a North bound empty coal train at Athens,TN on the NS main between Knoxville and Chattanooga, TN. It suprised me to see. I had heard the dispatcher issue a track warrent to engine 9419. I set up to take my pictures at a grade crossing. I knew that it was a C40-9W, but when it rounded the bend and came into sight I had to do a double take because at first it looked like a old high short hood, until I saw the flared radiators. <br /> <br />So the question to ask is does anyone know why they do this? It's not as common as it used to be but they stinn do it enough to order new units with dual control stands.
