Meet Virginian. A southbound UP grain train meets Virginian heritage unit-led empty crude oil train ONUEU at Warnock on UP's Chester Subdivision. The VGN was sitting crewless in a line of northbounds waiting to get into Alton and Southern's Gateway Yard in East St. Louis, IL. Besides NS 1069, other cool power in this shot includes former ATSF warbonnet C40-8W #874, a patched SP unit, and a UP C40-8.
