Thanks David, It's funny but I was emailing some of my railroad buddies about those trains I've been seeing coming to Atlanta & low & behold Gary emailed me about these pair of Gen Sets were in Birmingham & right after I replied back to him I was going to Norris Yard to look for them the 301 pulled up & stopped as if to pose for me before heading to North Yard to do some switching. I'm glad I looked up, because it was very quiet. Luckily I was at a crossing & that's probably what saved me, because the crossing bells went off. If it wasn't for that I might have waited to late to get my camera & run up to where I could broadside the unit. I really wanted a head on shot, but didn't have time. I barely had time for this shot. I tried to shoot it again, but it stayed down in the yard until the light got bad & plus the build up was bad as well. I'm sure I'll be getting more shots
