What's so great about that. I see WCs all the time and I have seen a BNSF local with a GP15-1 and GP38-2 running longhood forward.

Railfans screech to a halt and jump madly out of their cars to snap pictures while regular motorists complain about the delay and try to figure out if they can beat the engines to the crossing....

I caught this awesome light engine move on Saturday here in eastern PA with a WC SD45u leading the NS Maersk Sealand SD40-2 (NS 3329)! The plus was that they were running long hood foward!
