NS 8030         
I was scheduled off work today to shoot basketball, but the tournament that I was scheduled for was postponed, which gave me a free day to do whatever I wanted. With snow on the ground, and above-average temperatures in store for the near future, I decided to take advantage of what snow that was on the ground and get some snow shots with some trains around Fort Wayne since I had not gotten any yet this year. CFE was running a sand train today with a KCS leader which was the main objective. The train was preparing to depart the yard once I had gotten up there, but a green signals for a westbound caught my eye and I decided to park alongside Fletcher Ave. to see what it was. A later than usual NS 255 started my day with a sole GEVO. If I would have known this was the train that was coming I probably would have tried to shoot it somewhere where it would be running at trackspeed. Im sure this lightweight train would have been kicking up the fresh powder nicely.
