Well I have finally done it!!!! With me recently seeing Reading 1067 leading NS Intermodal 22K, I have completed my 20 of the NS Heritage Units leading. I did complete seeing all of them by August 2017, but the Reading 1067 has always been a thorn in my side to get to see it. Anyway, the photo dates are not in order. I put in order the numbers for the 10 ES44AC's & 10 SD70ACe's. Let me tell you, this was very hard to do to go through and pick the best photos I have gotten of each of them. So of the photos may not be real clear, but as you know, over the past few years, I have gotten better at photo taking. As to photos, I wanted to make it 1 of each for the best of them, but there are a few you will see, like VGN 1069, that I could not resist adding a few photos of that as that's my favorite heritage.
And now onto our Feature Presentation!!!!!!!
