Norfolk Southern recently teamed up with General Electric to film a commercial advertising GE's "Brilliant Machines". The commercial features NS GE ES44AC #8113 pacing alongside the Knight Rider car, "KITT", and was filmed from various vantage points, including aerial helicopter footage. Here we see the first take of the "pacing" scene being filmed along Lithia Road between Lithia and Buchanan, VA. Photo by Casey Thomason. For more information, visit www.nscorp.com
