Nice catch of this NS train waiting to take off! Nothing like the sound of an EMD that's been maintained and fine tuned of the years. Then to meet an awesome Engineer like this one and throw you a water! This is what makes railfanning and the effort all worth it. Cheers from Laurel, Delaware USA and a new subscriber of your channel!
