ex-SP 9423 leads four other motors on empties southbound through the S-curve at Chloe, WV.

A loaner from the N&W serves as extra power on these southbound empties through Cambria, WV.
A rare burst of speed at the Mahan Tunnel's southwestern portal.
Back in Dixie, an SD50 takes charge at the old Position Light signals on approach towards the Dixie Siding.

Thanks guys! Appreciate the kind words
The grass in those shots is a reskin of one of the JVC NE/GR grasses which is on the DLS: <kuid:328583:100316> JVC-(NE/Gr.)Dark Green04/Dense
Highly recommend all of the JVC-(NE/GR) assets, really great stuff there!
