After the passage of Amtrak Keystones in both directions. A Norfolk Southern local freight pulled out onto the Harrisburg Main Line to reverse directions and return to Lewis Yard (Dillerville) in Lancaster, Pennsylvania.

To simplify switching and ease reverse moves such as this one, NS had locomotives at both ends of the short freight.

On the west end was a lovely antique.

When the local stopped to change directions at BP74-1 in Landisville, I made photos from the adjacent Amos Herr Park.

In addition to these digital images exposed with my Nikon Z cameras, I also used the opportunity to expose several 35mm Ektachrome slides using my father’s Leica M4. Evening sun made for nice light on the old locomotives.
