Horses Over The Bridge
Title:  Horses Over The Bridge
Description:  Go to a UP main line see NS trains.... Here we see NS 8351 as it leads this auto train south on the Union Pacific Chester Sub., most likely NS train 171 (Detroit, MI (Sterling) - Sidney, IL (UP)). So technically its a UP traio running with NS power. Currently crossing the Big Muddy River Bridge in Wolf Lake, Illinois on a crystal clear Saturday.
