Since college is out for the holiday season, I had a chance to railfan in Christiansburg, VA on the Norfolk Southern Virginia Division and try out my new scanner. Traffic was slow in the morning due to MOW and NS 147 going into emergency due to a broken coupler and blocking the track for the majority of the day.
-NS 16T being lead eastbound through Walton by a BNSF locomotive in the executive paint scheme.
-NS 147 finally got on the move around 1:30-2:00p.m. after going into emergency that morning. NS 147 as it crosses under the coaling tower at Vicker.
-NS 185 being lead by UP SD70 passes through Montgomery Tunnel near Christiansburg, VA.
Also had the chance to go to the NS Lambert's Point Yard in Norfolk, VA for my job and get a guided tour of their facility. Photos were taken with Kodak P&S at Lambert's Point.
