I almost wet myself when I saw 8099, at the time this was recorded, I watched the video when it was 2 days old, and just now found it, that same unit was is the tacoma crew change track, manifest that time, I think they swapped power in seattle, or the manifest was the H-PASTAC
great catches and video of trains at the longest tunnel and these other areas too
Spectacular trains and scenery!

Great video as always!
Thanks Sam!
What's with the Giant checkered door?
After a train has passed through the tunnel, they close the door at the east end, then use fans to blow air to the west end to filter out the exhaust.
What's that green locomotive in skykomish?
That was NS 8099, one of Norfolk Southern's 20 heritage units.
