RN 2398 and 3300 Working A Freight
Title:  RN 2398 and 3300 Working A Freight
Description:  Unfortunately this shot failed to capture 2398's cab, but it does give one of the better views that I got of 3300 during the NRHS Convention, as it wasn't there for show and had to hurry on its way without being uncoupled for us to get a better look.
