Parts is parts.  Sometimes you have to use what's available on the spot.
The daily commute is part of everyday life but I get two rides a day out of it. Paul

strangely enough, this unit carries a conrail quality door on the nose.

NS 8447 carries a BNSF door on it's nose... looks like its NS, but look close and you can see its just a very dirty BNSF door

looks like the shop guys somewhere had some fun with these two units

If you can't find me in Deshler, I'm either eating, sleeping, or dead.
