New Routing

CSX M492 crosses a wooden trestle along the CSX Brunswick Subdivision in Waycross, GA.

 

As of early January 2023, CSX began routing all northbounds that used to traverse the Jesup Subdivision north of Waycross, to the Brunswick Subdivision where they run east toward Nahunta and turn north there allowing them to use the Nahunta Subdivision to Jesup. The reason for this change is unknown, however, with the length of trains increasing in todays age, the shorter sidings on the Jesup Subdivision cannot warrant meets of two 10,000' trains, however, they can do so on the Nahunta. This routing change also allows northbounds and southbounds running via the A-Line through Jesup/Savannah two routes into Waycross which could prove beneficial in cases of derailments or a need for multiple reroutes. For railfans, this change is nice because the Brunswick Subdivision, while fairly bland and boring, recieved one train which ran under darkness most of the time allowing for minimal photography oppurtunities along the line.
