The variety of power has a definite resemblance to Clearing Yard. I can usually count on BRC, CSX, NS, and UP showing up on any given day, with CP, CN, BNSF, WSOR and some lease units as probables.
The daily commute is part of everyday life but I get two rides a day out of it. Paul

I just got back from a two day trip to Harrisburg PA and here's all the foreign power I saw.
UP:
SD?? (it was behind an NS GE in Enola so I couldn't see what it was)
2 SD70Ms (one on the ex RDG bridge, one in Enola)
C40-8 (on RDG bridge)
3 AC4400s (two in Enola, one on RDG bridge)
1 SD90MAC (on Rockville bridge)
CSX
AC4400CW and C40-8 (both on RDG bridge)
CN
4 unknown (in Enola behind a few rows of cars)
Other
FURX SD40-2 (RDG bridge)
SP AC4400CW (Rockville bridge)
plus other rare engines including RC Highhoods, and stores GP38s (including Sprit of Conrail and Philly Division GP38s) and a lone B36-7 (taken off the NS roster a year ago).
The most amazing thing is I found out on a few websites that BNSF, UP, CSX, FURX, NREX, and SP came through also (the UP, CSX, FURX, and SP were different from what I saw). Nice relief from NS GE's.
