The ghost of the PRR must of been in shock when this rolled out of the paintshop in altoona. I have another shot of this coming down the tracks right before I took this photo. Let me find it and I will post it, you get a better view of the power on hand on 11A today.
NS 3433 could also be considered a PRR Heritage unit, it began life as PRR 6082.
For anyone who may be interested, PRR 6082 was an SD40, it became PC 6082, then Conrail 6335. When Conrail retired it's SD40s, it was rebuilt to SD40-2 specs and became Conrail 6976. When CR was split between NS and CSXT, it became NS 3433.
