Slones Branch Loads at Boones Creek

Traversing Clinchfield’s 841’ long Boones Creek Viaduct, CSXT 515 grinds south toward Erwin with loaded Santee Cooper train U356-25. (Shelby, Ky - Pennyroyal, Sc). Based on a few sources, my educated guess is this train was loaded on the Pompey Spur at Castleton Commodities LLC’s “Slones Branch” loadout in Millard, Ky.

 

Interesting fact about the CSXT 515 is that it and 512 were the only two YN2 CW44’s delivered with a non standard number font on the cab.
