| Description: |
The Erie Heritage engine leading stack train 21R westbound at Penn. Also in the consist are NS 8370, 9840, 9121, and 9810. This was one of the slowest days I have ever seen on the Pittsburgh Line and had me almost thinking I was on CSX. But a heritage unit it makes it all worth it. |

| Description: |
In perfect evening sunlight, a SWP loaded sand train using run-through locomotives from Norfolk Southern is crossing the Greene Junction bridge over the serene Youghiogheny River. The locomotives are a C40-8W, SD90MAC (former UP), and a C40-9. As far as I know this is the first time a SD90MAC has been on this rail line. The train number is Z687-05, because it is coming off the CSX Keystone Subdivision on the other side of the river. |

| Description: |
A train of empty sand cars sits in the hot sun at Wheeler Bottom, also known as O&B Junction. The train had a wait time of 3+ hours because it could not get onto CSX which was doing track work. The rails on the ground here are for the SWP Railroads own track improvements. A second track will be added around the bend. |
