NS 265 heads west just outside Waterloo with some of the most bizarre trio of power, especially on an intermodal. The original power set went east on 264, with Nickel Plate Road heritage unit NS 8100 leading. In the northeast, a CSX SD40-2 was tacked on as the leader. After the power was spun to lead 265 back west, speculation began as the SD40 was expected to be pulled at Binghamton, NY. However, this never happened. A detour was also taking place, and this train ran on CSX trackage under X427, and the SD40 still led. Speculation continued and it was expected to be pulled in Buffalo, and then Cleveland, but it never happened. Even on NS trackage it stayed on. It's nice to see that even after the PSR purge, old EMD's are still more than capable of leading road freights.
