N&W 2570, looking east
Title:  N&W 2570, looking east
Description:  N&W RS-11 was the last one of a multi-unit set on a westbound N&W freight in Ironton, OH. I was on the south side of the tracks, looking north, as this train went by. There were at least 2-3 other EMD units ahead of this Alco. I used a 110-series camera (remember those?) for this photo--didn't have a SLR camera in those days--hence. some of the graininess. At least we have the photo. Date is uncertain. BTW, I used a new Epson scanner with an automatic "color correction" feature, as the original print had faded badly over the years. Notice the extended window on the cab.

N&W 2570, looking west
Title:  N&W 2570, looking west
Description:  N&W RS-11 2570, ex-NKP 570, was the trailing unit on a westbound freight in Ironton, OH in March 1979. Date is uncertain. Note the Roman-style "N&W" lettering, in gold or yellow, on the hood; and the extended windows on the cab. This was one of the few Alco's I ever saw in action. Further, note the relatively clean exhaust--no turbo lag here! BTW, I took this picture using a 110-series camera (remember those?) and used my new Epson scanner's "color correction" feature, as the original print had faded badly over the years. At any rate, we still have the photo and memories even though 2570 may be long gone by now.
