Norfolk Southern 258 with Tribute Unit 1230 Birmingham Coming Out of the Sunset My 200th Video

It was quite the cold late afternoon, 9 degrees with a minus 3 windchill as the sun was setting. I was bound and determined I would catch tribute unit 1230 Birmingham this day. I had been tracking it all day and the train had fallen down earlier. I was hoping the daylight would holdout for the approaching train. I was not let down. It was an interesting proposition to catch it coming out of the setting sun. The 1230 is the first of what will be a fleet of tribute locomotives to key cities and terminals along Norfolk Southern. They presently have the Birmingham 1230 and Atlanta 1231. More will be coming. At 508pm eastern time 258 arrived at Clymers with the 1230 running solo on the head end. Behind 211 containers AC44C6M 4311 handles the duties of DP on the tail end of the train. While I was waiting 259, 258’s westbound counterpart rolled into the siding and up to a stop to affect a meet between the two trains. The 1230 looks good with the maroon paint on the front half with gold lettering. Since this is a milestone video, my 200th, I thought the tribute unit would be a perfect subject.
