Short morning of intermodals & foreign power on the NS Harrisburg Line

10/4/26 - Hummelstown PA After spending the very early morning at a different location, I went over to Hummelstown Pennsylvania at the Railroad Street Crossing at milepost HP 103 on the Norfolk Southern Harrisburg Line. I would see 4 trains: NS 25A, NS 289 with a UP leader, NS 25P with a "Thoroughbred" C44-9W leading and UP trailing, and NS 256.
