NS Display at Monroe, MI Sep 30, 2023

Hi Herb:
   I'am surprised CN did not have something there since they also serve the port.  It is amazing that NS at least sent a a unit over though it would just be in Warner yard all weekend anywhey.   Part of the problem is the EPA.  If you wash a locomotive you have to capture all of the water and treat it.  Costs big bucks also the laborour who would do that is gone with PSR.  Also do you think management cars about the public.  The old days are gone, never to return. Kenneth Borg

What happened to the days when the railroad cleaned up & made sure their representative equipment sparkled & looked nice to convey a positive image to the attendees?  The 7129 looks like something NS just ran over from their service yard to the display area. What a horrible (quickie) paint job on the caboose! Wonder if/what other  equipment was on display from any other railroad(s) & how their condition compared to this NS equipment. Sad.  Herb Edwards
