Norfolk Southern’s 203, The Virginian Heritage Unit stopping at Bristow, Virginia for their crew change which they always do here. The train started in Rutherford, Pennsylvania and runs down to Atlanta, Georgia. I just made it to this location about 2 minutes before I could see the light on the unit coming up the hill. As the new crew came on board I changed my location to get a shot of him starting up. I was just below the tracks on the side of the road closest to the tracks. I got a few nice still shots of the train when I heard a vehicle coming down the gravel road behind me. So at that point I moved to the far side of the road. Here comes 3 vehicles so I watch as they get closer, the first one goes up to the crossing and stops. The other 2 stops where I had been standing and who opens the door of the first vehicle is my friend Railfan Rowan. The 2nd vehicle is Daniel Simon another dear friend. No he is no relation to me, he always gets asked that question, LOL ! So we film the Virginian taking off and stand and talk for several more minutes as another train (228) passes us.
