Tribute Trio

In a rather unexpected turn of events, CSX pulled all 3 of their "Pride In Service" units out of storage in Waycross, Georgia and put them in charge of Q410. A daily manifest that runs from Waycross to Selkirk, NY.

 

As one can imagine, a train with unique engines like this tends to get lots of attention from the local railfan populace.

 

The lead unit CSXT 911 (Honoring First Responders) and CSXT 3194 (Honoring Our Law Enforcement) were on the head end, while CSXT 1776 (Honoring Our Veterans) was working in the middle of the train as a Distributed Power (DP) Unit. (See preceding photo for the 1776)

 

Here, the train passes through downtown Ashland, Virginia; Tiny Tim's Hobby Shop is in the background.
