NS 28Z with two SD40E's and two GP38-2's roll through the brick yard as they start there up hill climb.

A set of four SD40E helpers aid in shoving heavy Strawberry Ridge coal train 534 over the West Slope of the Allegheny Mountains.

Helpers on the rear of general merchandise train 10G pass all of the "golden oldies" at the Altoona Railroaders Memorial Museum. This was shot during the weekend of Railfest 2010.
