Chasing the Erie heritage unit

[jw1987]

Haven't done much railroad photography lately, but had the chance to catch the Erie heritage unit yesterday and didn't pass it up. Started out at Waddy, where a five train meet was taking place, the Erie being the lead unit on 22A, the fifth train in the meet. From there I chased it to Louisville.

I like that scheme. It looks powerful, and I was trying to come up with animal face that it looks like, but the only thing that comes to mind is a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle.
