NS work train

The sound of an EMD turbocharger working hard can be heard as a rare work train heads west. The power is an ex-Conrail SD40-2 running solo with a very nasty-sounding Leslie RS3L horn. The engineer seemed to be a little horn shy, but I gotta admit, I think if I were driving the train, I'd be embarassed to blow the horn, too! Notice that except for two Norfolk & Western boxcars, all of the other cars are Southern Railway. YEEE!
