Inaugural Run

The first trip of D705 was certainly a memorable one with CSX 8624 leading the northbound train still sporting YN2 paint.

 

They'd stop twice, once at Alexis and once at Erie due to issues but they finally made it up to Carleton where the DT&I once crossed the PM, now CN and CSX.

 

With 100 or so cars in tow, they head towards Lansing past the old interlocking tower on the left, still standing after years of being closed. Both the YN2 paint and this tower are living on borrowed time and I'm glad I was there to capture this moment. Special thanks to AJ Border for ensuring we arrived here to be able to shoot this.
