After my dad and I chased Buffalo & Pittsburgh train RIBT with a trio of EMD SD60 series locomotives (an ex-CR SD60I, ex-CR SD60M, and an ex-BN SD60M Triclops), I was quite surprised to find three retired NS GP38-2s sitting at the Butler Shops. Another notable unit at the shops was BPRR 7803, which recently had some of its Conrail features touched up. And as I was getting pics of the shops off PA 68, I heard the horn of Bessemer & Lake Erie 867, an EMD SD38AC, and ran over to get video of it pulling the AK Steel Turn Northbound, along with BLE SD40T-3 #905. After I grabbed a few more shots of the wide variety of power sitting there, we concluded the day by catching the BTRI at Fenelton, PA with the Triclops leading. We unfortunately missed it while at the Dollar General off US 422 in East Butler, as it arrived earlier than expected.
