PREX 2026 and PREX 105 |
| Description: |
While the Gettysburg unit is my favorite, I definitely would say that the ex-ATSF GP20u in Bluebonnet paint is a very close second best. Its gonna suck when/ig this unit leaves the property when Patriot Power arrives. |

PREX 3054 and PREX 2026 |
| Description: |
PREX 3054, which appears to have a 50 Years OLS Sticker slapped on the nose now, sits behind PREX 2026. The PREX 3054 was the very first unit on the property when Pioneer bought the line from the Maumee and Western back in 2013. Weird to thing that its time on the ND&W is probably coming to an end sooner rather than later. |

The 3 units all sit together awaiting anothdr days work on the ND&W. A great way to cap off a great day of train watching! From here on out (except for the next day), the days will get shorter, slowly but surely. |

We couldnt find the Santa Fe unit in the yard so we drove down a little further and found it sitting almost at the CSX interchange. Ive never personally seen NDW put power this close to the interchange, but maybe they were preparing for interchange work for Monday on Friday. |

PREX 2026 and PREX 105 |
| Description: |
Of course, no visit to Defiance is complete without a visit to the ND&W yard. Both the Santa Fe painted GP20u and the Gettysburg GP9 were present. With the recent acquisition of Patriot Rail buying out Pioneer, it is uncertain how long the fleet of old EMDs will last on the ND&W. So, still shots or moving, it is best to get as many as I can. |

PREX 2026 was positioned on the other side of the yard with a few cars. I assumed that this came back from Napoleon the day before. Guess I should have been out yesterday! |

PREX 2045 and PREX 2026 |
| Description: |
The other engineer on the crew hops onto the ATSF unit and pulls it onto the Lafarge Spur. PREX 2045 would then back into the cars and pull forward on the main. Meaning, there would be long hood forward units leading both trains their respective trains when they were done switching in Cecil... I feel like they did this to upset me on purpose, but probably not. |

Ater about an hours work at Lafarge, PREX 2026 brings a hefty cut of cars out of the plant, most of which would go back to NS at Woodburn. |

This house is a favorite for photographers. The railroad quite literally runs right in front of these peoples home. Hardly any ballast lines the track on the other side either, making it pretty unique. |

PREX 2026 |
| Description: |
If I have learned anything about ND&W crews, they are not railfan friendly. At all. The last time i shot this signal from the other side I was yelled at, so I decided to give it a try from the other side. Unfortunately, I did not know that "no clearance" sign was in the way and with the conductor behind me on the other side of the tracks, I decided not to test my luck, and came away with what I could. After this, with no sign of a Napoleon train running today, I decided to hightail west to see if I could find the 2045 again. |
