If you travel from north to south on Greenfield Road in Lancaster, you cross three sets of tracks. The first is Norfolk Southern’s New Holland Secondary near the Greenfield Road exit for Highway 30.

These were made using m f4.0 24-70mm zoom hand-held at 6400 ISO.Note the ‘FRED’ telemetry device with flashing red light in the top image.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
