    Very nice! The scheme, of course, traces its heritage to the old SRR Green, White & Gold passenger scheme that the late W. Graham Claytor made famous. I also recall the black, white and gold scheme; not nearly as classy!
    Hey, keep up your good work, but remember the General Notice: "Safety is the first consideration in the performance of your duties. When in doubt the safe course MUST be taken." Don't get out there somewhere and get run over by a corn picker in a cabbage patch beside the Railroad!

    Still loving this heritage unit content (and the non-heritage), I caught 8099 twice before, leading the first time and caught it again with it trailing behind 8103. I sure do hope to go out again soon, I haven't been out in a good while. Also if you wouldn't mind maybe taking a look at those videos, it'd make my day. Keep up the good work!

    I have to compliment you on your camera skills, superb! ...and, you must be using a top notch camera.
    The quality, detail and color of your shots are fantastic.
    ..and, just one quick question:
    In your pursuit and filming of trains, have you ever seen any of these guys that take a 'ride' in one of the carriages?
    Seen some YT videos with them and they never seem to get to any trouble jumping on and off!
    If I was much younger I would be tempted to do it myself! Thanks for the videos you treat us with son!

      Hey,Rowan,you are awesome,and getting better all the time! Ref; those Penn Central,and Southern shots,I remember when the PRR,was running the Southern trains out of Penn Station (NY),and you could catch them on Linden,(NJ),platforms,and they had GG-1s ,on the head end! And to add to the madness,the late,lamented Penn Central,with the 13D paint scheme,was a time of darkness,now thankfully gone! At least the NS has a sense of history,as did the Southern before it,as they maintained steam,well after everyone wrote it off! That made up for all sorts of things,in the 80's,and 90's,so memories help a lot! Sorry for my verbosity,but there's a lot of areas that you guys,only get second hand,and I was there,so I know from on the ground knowledge! Thanks for a very well video,and keep at it,you are not alone ❤!

    8099 is painted up like the old SR 6133 on display at the NC Transportation Museum. I have always loved this paint scheme. When they operate trains at the museum they usually use the 6133 to pull the train cars for rides. Great work on the video as always!
