NS 9906 - Fullerton CA - 04/27/06

            Baretable trains can make uninteresting subjects.  At times, though, the power can make one photograph them anyway.  Such was the case here, as Norfolk Southern Dash 9-44CW 9906 (paired with BNSF Dash 9-44CW 4102) has come down from Burlington Northern Santa Fe's Hobart Yard near Los Angeles to pick up a cut of empty spine cars that were being stored at Basta, in Fullerton, California.  In 2004, the Norfolk Southern was in need to power to the degree that many of the locomotives were delivered in primer, saving time getting them on the road.  NS 9906 was one of those engines, still in primer a year and a half after delivery.  (April 27, 2006)
