Soutern Style at Leets

            This is perhaps the most fitting photograph I've taken of the Savannah & Atlanta heritage unit.  If the Southern Railway still existed, would they regularly operate SD70ACes long hood forward?  In reality NS 1065 is the rear DPU on an eastbound manifest train at Leetsdale, PA.  This unit had been reported in Conway Yard but did not expect to see it out and about.  As the long shadows attest, daylight was fading fast in this early evening view along the Fort Wayne Line, so the timing couldn't have been much better.
