GM to Ford - eat my smoke! Norfolk Southern 1701 (SD45-2) leads a four pack of General Motors owned EMD's finest late 1960s/early 1970s offerings (NS 1702 SD45-2, NS 1700 SD45-2 [EL Heritage], and NS 3429 SD40-2) taking Conrail Shared Assets OI16 down the Chemical Coast Line (Garden State Secondary) on the afternoon of Saturday, October 10, 2020. At the opportune moment, the digital billboard flips to an advertisement for competitor Ford Motors just in time to receive a think plume of black smoke as the engineer notches it up to pull an astounding 135 cars on this usually much more compact local to Browns Yard in Sayreville, New Jersey.
