CSX E090-06, the empty Eastman Chemical to Loyall, KY, coal train, is seen roaring out of the north portal of Natural Tunnel, Va, on a cool Sunday morning. CSX runs the coal trains for the massive Eastman Chemical facility in Kingsport, TN. They run two 45 car cuts in; and they run one 90 car empty train out when needed. This E090 is having no issues keeping track speed as they climb upgrade towards Horton's Summit a few miles up the road. CSX in the tunnel is something I'd yet accomplished from the north end. Happily this visit around the Appalachia District was the busiest I'd seen it since I've been up. E090 here is a few hours away from tying up in Loyall, and the next morning a local crew would haul the 90 cars out for a loading at Balkan Mine in Tejay, Kentucky.
Thanks for looking and enjoy!
