Last week I caught my first NS train that has a DPU or Distributed Power Unit on it.  

There was like 3 units on the head end ... somewhere near the middle was another unit working as a DPU.  Kind of strange to see it in the middle.  

I am old school.  I remember 6 D&H Century 626's and a caboose on EACH end of the trains comming out of Hudson Yard.   Those were the days ... wish i had a Camera back then.
