Railfan Pictures of the Week - 3/9/2025
 
With SEPTA's second new engine QST30BE-T4L KLWX 91 parked in Abrams Yard on NS Harrisburg Line for a week, SEPTA finally decided to pick it up on August 9 2024, sending SPAX 90 to Norristown to retrieve its sibling. Extra 90 has just cleared CP Ford and is approaching Norristown Transportation Center.
While the SEPTA dispatcher tries to get through to Norfolk Southern, it is business as usual; SPAX 90 waits at the station as an inbound revenue train with Silverliner V's passes.
With no response from NS and an outbound train approaching, SEPTA dispatcher needs to clear the track and sends Extra 90 to Elm Street.
SEPTA tries to call Abrams Yardmaster directly from Elm Street while the outbound arrives at the station.
It turns out that NS did not get the email and H82 crew knew nothing about the delivery, as KLWX 91 was still sitting in Abrams Yard.
So SEPTA dispatcher sends Extra 90 back to Wayne Electric empty handed.
