Clearwater Street Running
CSX 6534 and 7500 lead train L791 down the middle of South East Avenue in Clearwater, FL on the last day of 2024.
This day started off very gloomy, with rain and cloud cover over the S-line. I went out for B241 with a pair of former Citi Rail locomotives and followed them to Tampa. While in Tampa, the weather turned for the worst at the same time L791 was leaving Yeoman yard in Tampa for Clearwater. About an hour after leaving Yeoman, I find myself here in Clearwater shooting L791 down the street running section for the first time under nearly cloudless skies. It's crazy to think less than an hour before, this train was passing through a heavy downpour. That's Florida for you though! Overall, not a bad way to end 2024.
