Reply to "Rail-fanning on The OGR Forum 🚂 Welcome: Pictures YOU have taken! • Hope to see you out rail-fanning."

I chased a Norfolk Southern intermodal detouring over CSX by riding Washington's Metro Blue Line. 27A usually runs on the H-line, but a derailment earlier this month in Sharpsburg, MD, required a reroute, and NS chose to send the train down the CSX Capitol and RF&P subdivisions to Alexandria, VA. I went out to my usual low-cost/low-effort spot at RO interlocking, and waited. a few hours for the train to show up. Since an NS crew would board at the Alexandria station, I figured I would at least be able to get two shots off, but ended up getting three because the train stopped and started several times before they got to the crew change point.
