How long will 2nd generation power be found on priority trains? Maybe not much longer as new ES44C4's are coming. But for now you can get shots like this on a cool windy morning.
On a cool morning, FEC 226 rounds the curve with SD40-2's X 3. The time is running out on through trains being lead by 2nd gen EMD's on the FEC. 24 ES44C4's are due by year's end.
FEC 226 rolls into St. Augustine on a warm Martin Luther King Day with two classic schemed 70M-2's. These days you never know what will up on mainline trains.
